Relating network events to subscriber and mobile equipment identities

摘要

In a radio telecommunications network, such as the Global System for Mobile Communications, and the like, traffic and radio network events are more effectively associated with any one or more corresponding mobile identities. This may be achieved by forwarding a complete mobile identity relationship to the corresponding network manager, which, in turn, uses the mobile identity relationship to update a mobile identity relationship database. Then, whenever the network manager receives a traffic, radio or other type of network event report, along with a single mobile identity, the network manager can effectively relate any or all reported events with any corresponding mobile identity by correlating the single mobile identity with the mobile identity relationship information stored in the mobile identity relationship database.
