3GPP43.013Discontinuous Reception (DRX) in the GSM systemRelease 17TS

The SGSN maintains knowledge of the cells that are to be paged, and when the paging group occurs in the respective cell(s), in order to locate a particular MS for packet data delivery. In addition, when eDRX is used the SGSN maintains the value of the eDRX value it has negotiated with the MS. The SGSN constructs paging requests and sends them to a specific set of BSSs. Each page request always includes the IMSI. If a MS uses eDRX then the page request also includes the negotiated eDRX value. If EC-EGPRS is used, the downlink coverage class applicable to the MS is also included in the page request.
