Abstract
In a mobile radio communication system wherein mobile units are paged by repeatedly transmitting the same paging signal in n paging signal frames, the number of times a paging signal has been transmitted can be known at the receiving side without the need to transmit additional information, and a time diversity reception scheme can be employed at the receiving side, by forming the paging signal frames from n fixed-length subframes each of which contains a paging signal, and by positioning subframes that contain a new paging signal at one end of the paging signal frames, and, in the case of subframes containing paging signals that will be transmitted for the second or subsequent time, by arranging such subframes with a stagger in accordance with this number of times.
