Abstract

Various features and aspects of the present disclosure are adapted to facilitate improved reception of page messages at an access terminal operable in a wireless communication system. When the access terminal is in a region where two or more cells overlap, if the access terminal is moving away from the coverage area of an active cell and moving towards the coverage area of a neighbor cell, the access terminal may miss an incoming page message transmitted from its serving cell. Thus, the access terminal may dedicate fingers of a rake receiver to listen to paging information transmitted from one or more neighbor cells, decoding this information if a page decoding operation corresponding to the active cell fails. Other aspects, embodiments, and features are also claimed and described.
