Abstract
A system and method for transmitting a series of pages in a communication system. The system includes a paging console for placing a plurality of pages in a queue for transmission to one or more targets devices. Each page includes a Dependent-Upon (DU) field that indicates whether the page is dependent upon an earlier page in the queue. Upon initiating a paging event, the plurality of pages are attempted based upon their order in the queue. Prior to transmitting each page, it is determined whether the DU field of that page indicates a dependency upon an earlier page. If there is no dependency, the page is attempted as normal. If the current page is dependent upon an earlier page, a record is checked to determine whether the earlier page was successful. If the earlier page was successful, the current page is attempted. If the earlier page was unsuccessful, the current page is not attempted and is recorded as unsuccessful.
