Abstract
Briefly, in accordance with one or more embodiments, communication is made by a machine-to-machine (M2M) device with a first base station using a first group identifier, and then a handover is performed to a second base station. The M2M device listens to a message broadcast by the second base station to determine if the first group identifier should be changed. The M2M device requests assignment of a second group identifier for communication with the second base station if it is determined that the group identifier should be changed for the M2M device. In some embodiments, the M2M device wake from an idle mode to listen to a message broadcast by the base station. If the message indicates that a group identifier should be changed, the M2M device requests assignment of an updated group identifier.
