Method of subscriber data control in a mobile communication network where subscriber data is transferred from a home mobile switching center to a destination mobile switching center

摘要

A subscriber data control method in a mobile communication network which reduces the processing load on a mobile switching center and can effectively use the resource of a visitor subscriber data area is provided the subscriber data of the visitor mobile station is not deleted in response to the subscriber data delete request from its home mobile switching center due to a fact that the visitor mobile station has further moved to another service area, and the state of the registered subscriber data of the visitor mobile station is set as the inactive holding state from the active state, and thereafter in the case where the visitor mobile station returns to the subject service area within a predetermined period of time and again performs the location registration, restoration of the subscriber data of the visitor mobile station can be made by only changing the state of the subscriber data from the inactive state to the active state. With respect to the subscriber data being put as the inactive holding state, it is deleted if no location registration is made within a predetermined period of time.
