Recent research works have attempted to improve the efficiency of Mobile IP by extending it with a layer 3 paging mechanism so-called IP paging. The employment of adaptability in some manner to user parameters in order to enhance the efficiency of IP paging schemes is probably a promising approach. In this paper, we present an analysis on the effect of both user-adaptability and time-adaptability to mobile user parameters in Individual Paging schemes by comparing the signaling cost of an adaptive Individual Paging scheme to that of a non-adaptive counterpart. From our analysis, specifying the optimal paging area (PA) is critical in saving signaling cost of IP paging. Thus, our investigation is focused on the adaptability of PA to maintain its optimality. We demonstrate that while the adaptability offers certain benefits in terms of signaling cost, the effects of user and time adaptability to different parameters may vary considerably.
