Abstract
A method and apparatus update page transmission verification statistics maintained by a network management center (140) in a radio paging system (100) in which encoding of a page is performed by a paging base station lo (132) remote from a central paging controller (101). Verification information is selectively stored (510, 514) in the paging base station (132) when a page is transmitted (512) in response to paging data sent from the central paging controller (101). The verification information includes an identifier (408) associated with the page and a time report (409) for reporting time of transmission of the page. The stored verification information is transmitted (608) periodically from the paging base station (132) to the network management center (140), and then combined (818) in the network management center (140) with current page transmission verification statistics (212) maintained by the network management center (140), thereby updating the page transmission verification statistics (212).
