Abstract

A method and computer program for initiating a message to a radio access network include steps of: () detecting a request to transmit a probe message from a transmitter over an access channel to a radio access network; () calculating a transmit power for the probe message; () checking a condition that may result in failure to receive the probe message over the access channel by the radio access network; and () when the condition is determined to be true, then () reducing a message length of the probe message to generate a shorter probe message; () recalculating the transmit power to send the shorter probe message; and () transmitting the shorter probe message over the access channel at the recalculated transmit power.
