Method, first network node, computer program and carrier for handling paging of wireless devices
A method and a first network node of a wireless network, for handling paging of a wireless device. A Radio Access Network Area, RANA, which is supported by the first network node, is registered in a database by network nodes supporting the RANA, including the first network node. The network nodes that support the RANA are then identified in the database. When it is detected that a wireless device needs to be paged in the RANA, e.g. for receiving data, a paging message is distributed to the identified set of network nodes as an instruction to perform radio transmission of the paging message. Further, which is available to the network nodes throughout the wireless network. Thereby, any network node in the wireless network, such as the first network node, is able to perform distribution of a paging message to all network nodes that support a particular RANA, as registered in the database.
PAGING MECHANISM IN RADIO NETWORK WITH MULTIPLE BEAM OPERATION
A method for paging in a wireless communication system, including a network node (10) configured to send and receive data in a plurality of beams for communication with a terminal (1), comprising transmitting first paging data (20) including a paging indicator from the network node (10) in multiple beams, wherein the paging indicator includes terminal ID or group ID information and a feedback request indicator and; receiving a response signal (22) in the network node from the terminal, wherein, dependent on said feedback request indicator, the response signal includes a beam indicator associated with a detected beam in which the terminal has received data from the network node.
Auto-resizing of geofences
In one embodiment, POI information is received from a first mobile communication device (MCD) of a group of communication devices respectively associated with group members. The POI information includes an identified location to establish a geofence to track activities of the group members at a POI. The geofence surrounding the POI is established based on the POI information. Whether there are changes to the activities of the group of communication devices are determined, where the changes to the activities include a geofence crossing by a group member. A notification is sent to each of the group of communication devices in response to determining that the geofence crossing by the group member has occurred. The geofence crossing indicates an arrival or departure of the group member at the POI. The geofence is resized based on the changes to the activities.

RAN paging and RAN area identifier exchange between base stations
A first base station receives from a second base station: a cell identifier of a cell of the second base station; and a second radio access network (RAN) area identifier of the cell. A packet for a wireless device in a radio resource control (RRC) inactive state is received. A RAN paging message is sent to the second base station in response to receiving the packet. The RAN paging message is based on a first RAN area identifier of the first base station being identical to the second RAN area identifier.

METHOD TO PROVIDE AD HOC AND PASSWORD PROTECTED DIGITAL AND VOICE NETWORKS
A method and system includes the ability for individuals to set up an ad hoc digital and voice network easily and rapidly to allow users to coordinate their activities by eliminating the need for pre-entry of data into a web or identifying others by name, phone numbers or email. This method is especially useful for police, fire fighters, military, first responders or other emergency situations for coordinating different organizations at the scene of a disaster to elevate conventional communication problems either up and down the chain of command or cross communication between different emergency units. The method and system provides that the users are only required to enter a specific Server IP address and an ad hoc event name, a password and perhaps the name of the particular unit.

Determination and presentation of customized notifications
Notifications for instructing user behavior can be determined and presented when appropriate. Historical fitness data and current fitness data are accessed. This data is used to determine whether a user fitness goal is likely to be achieved. If not, a notification may be determined and presented at a user device.
