1. A telecommunications network comprising:
- at least one radio area network (RAN) including at least one radio network controller and base transceiver;
a packet data serving node (PDSN) communicatively connected to each RAN; and
at least one correlation data records store (CDRS) communicatively connected to the PDSN outside the RAN, the CDRS configured to store and provide user data for all users connected in the at least one RAN.

Abstract
Example embodiments and methods are directed to providing and otherwise handling user information within telecommunications networks, including wireless telecommunications networks. Example embodiments may include wireless networks having a Correlation Data Records Store (CDRS) that may store and update all user data needed by applications and services operating in example networks. Example methods may provide for collection and handling in the CDRS of all user information relied upon by applications and services operating in wireless networks, so as to reduce resource consumption by such applications and services.

9. A wireless telecommunications network configured to communicatively connect to a plurality of users, the network including a server configured to store real-time user information including a user IP address, access node IP address, base transceiver station identifier, mobile station serial number, and powered-on status for each of the users.

10. A method of handling user data in a telecommunications network, the method comprising:
-
transmitting a network-level message from a packet data server node when a user establishes a data session in the network, the network-level message including user data; receiving the network-level message at a correlation data records store configured to store and provide user data for all users connected to the telecommunications network; correlating the user data with an associated user based on the user data; and storing the correlated user information in the correlation data records store. - View Dependent Claims (11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17)
