Monitor paging channel for overhead and mobile directed messages
Move to access state to originate a call or respond to a page request

MS in idle state means it is not calling but receiving the signals from BTS.

It means calls are not going through mobile, only BTS is contacting him.

The MS enters this state and listens to the Primary Paging Channel with the PRAT read from the Sync channel message. Any kind of interrupt say from the User, such as sending a SMS, making a call or network paging causes the Mobile to leave the idle to enter the System Access State. Calling this state, the Idle state is a misnomer as the mobile is busy but appears Idle to the user.

It basically performs two functions:
1.)Monitor paging channel for overhead and mobile directed messages
2.)Move to access state to originate a call or respond to a page request
The name given to this state is a misnomer. Actually the mobile is very busy in this state. In short the mobile constantly turning parts of itself on and off; on to perform vital functions and off again to save power so that the battery lasts longer. This periodic on and off of the mobile transceiver is called slotted mode of operation.
Note:
The mobile can operate in the slotted mode only in the idle state. While a mobile is latched to a particular network, for most of the time is in the idle state. Being in this state the mobile monitors the Paging Channel. If there is a procedure that requires to be carried out for a message received on Paging Channel, the mobile enters the System Access State. Paging Channel messages or user actions can cause the mobile to go from idle state to System Access State. So in this state the mobile station can receive messages, receive an incoming call (mobile station terminated call), initiate a call (mobile station originated call), initiate a registration, or initiate a message transmission.
