Abstract:
According to a first exemplary embodiment of the invention, a method provides update indication information from a radio network node to one or more wireless devices unreachable via a paging channel or a machine-type communication, MTC, control channel. The method comprises generating (112) an update signal comprising a Downlink Control Information, DCI, message by including the update indication information in the update signal, the update indication information comprising at least one indication unrelated to paging the one or more wireless devices, and transmitting (122) the update signal to the one or more wireless devices via a Physical Downlink Control Channel, PDCCH, when the one or more wireless devices are unreachable via the paging channel or the MTC control channel. Further embodiments of the invention includes e.g. methods of handling update indication information and corresponding radio network nodes and wireless devices.
