Abstract
Solutions for focused cellular network paging of a user equipment (UE) include: detecting, by a network, a network exit of the UE from a last known cell and an exit condition for the UE; determining, by the network, a network paging condition; based on at least the last known cell and the exit condition for the UE, determining, by the network, a set of priority paging cells; paging the UE with the set of priority paging cells; and based on at least failing to receive a response by paging the UE with the set of priority paging cells, paging the UE with a larger set of cells. In some examples, the network topology is also used for determining the set of priority paging cells. By starting with the set of priority paging cells, rather than wider global paging, fewer cells are used for paging, thereby saving network bandwidth.
