Service providing system, gateway device, information collection method and non-transitory computer readable medium storing program
First Claim
1. A service providing system comprising:
- an application server located in an external communication network;
a network node;
a Home Subscriber Server (HSS); and
a User Equipment (UE), whereinthe network node is configured to;
receive a request message that requests location information of the UE from the application server;
provide information indicating an error to the application server if the application server is not authorized to send the request message;
send a request message to the HSS;
receive information related to the location information of the UE from the HSS; and
send the location information to the application server,wherein the information related to the location information of the UE received by the network node from the HSS includes identification information of a mobility management node (MME) that manages the location information of the UE,wherein the network node is configured to;
send a request message to the MME whose identification information is the identification information received from the HSS; and
receive the location information from the MME, andwherein the request message sent by the network node to the MME includes information indicating a validity period in which the request message sent to the MME is valid.
