Data management in telecommunication networks
First Claim
1. In a telecommunications network including one or more mobile terminals in communicable relation to a mobile network and a data network such that data transmitted between the one or more mobile terminals and the data network is transmitted via the mobile network, a method of directing data between the one or more mobile terminals and the data network comprising:
- providing an alternative data route between the one or more mobile terminals and the data network which bypasses at least a portion of the mobile network;
applying one or more selection criteria to the data to be transmitted; and
using the result of the application of the selection criteria to selectively redirect at least a portion of the data to be transmitted onto the alternative data route.

Abstract
In a telecommunications network including one or more mobile terminals in communicable relation to a mobile network and a data network such that data from the mobile terminals is transmitted towards the data network via the mobile network, a method of directing data from the mobile terminals towards the data network includes: providing an alternative data route towards the data network which bypasses at least a portion of the mobile network; comparing the data from the mobile terminals with selection criteria; and using the result of the comparison to selectively redirecting at least a portion of the data generated by the mobile terminals onto the alternative data route. The alternative data route may be configured to bypass at least a portion of the core component of the mobile network, and data that is redirected is data which is not required to be processed by the bypassed core network component.

9. In a telecommunications network including one or more mobile terminals in communicable relation with a mobile network and a data network, such that data transmitted between the one or more mobile terminals and the data network is transmitted via the mobile network, a data route selection module for directing data between the one or more mobile terminals and the data network, the module configured to:
-
apply one or more selection criteria to the transmitted data; and use the result of the application of the selection criteria to selectively redirect at least a portion of the data onto an alternative data route between the one or more mobile terminals and the data network, such that the alternative data route bypasses at least a portion of the mobile network. - View Dependent Claims (10, 11, 12, 13, 14)

15. A non-transitory computer readable medium storing software for directing data between one or more mobile terminals of a mobile network and a data network, the software comprising:
-
executable code that provides an alternative data route between the one or more mobile terminals and the data network which bypasses at least a portion of the mobile network; executable code that applies one or more selection criteria to the data to be transmitted; and executable code that uses the result of the application of the selection criteria to selectively redirect at least a portion of the data to be transmitted onto the alternative data route. - View Dependent Claims (16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22)
