Abstract
A method of operating a communication system comprises establishing a wireless device release time interval for a wireless device release timer at an access node upon establishing an initial network connection between a wireless device and the access node. An initial synchronization process is performed between the wireless device and the access node. The method continues with the access node sending an unsolicited synchronization message to the wireless device and starting the wireless device release timer. A second synchronization process is performed and upon successful completion of the second synchronization process, a success status synchronization response message is sent by the access node to the wireless device. The access node receives a synchronization confirmation message from the wireless device that comprises an identifier corresponding to the identity of the wireless device and upon receiving the confirmation message, the access node cancels the wireless device release timer.
