METHOD OF COLLECTING PER-USER PERFORMANCE DATA
First Claim
1. A method for implementation in a wireless communication system comprising a plurality of base stations and a plurality of mobility management entities, comprising:
- receiving, at a first mobility management entity and from a first base station, measurement data collected by the first base station for a first mobile unit having a connection to the wireless communication system via the first base station, the measurement data comprising a temporary identifier associated with the first mobile unit for the duration of the connection;
determining, at the first mobility management entity, a permanent identifier of the first mobile unit using the temporary identifier; and
forming, at the first mobility management entity, a first record associated with the first mobile unit by associating the measurement data collected by the first base station for the first mobile unit with previously collected measurement data for the first mobile unit using the permanent identifier.

Abstract
The present invention provides a method for implementation in a wireless communication system including a plurality of base stations, a plurality of gateways, and a plurality of mobility management entities. The method includes receiving, at a first mobility management entity and from a first base station, measurement data collected by the first base station for a first mobile unit having a connection to the wireless communication system via the first base station. The measurement data includes a temporary identifier associated with the first mobile unit for the duration of the connection. The method also includes identifying the first mobile unit using the temporary identifier and forming a first record associated with the first mobile unit. The first record includes the measurement data collected by the first base station for the first mobile unit and previously collected measurement data for the first mobile unit.
