1. An apparatus comprising:
- a first distributed mobile architecture (DMA) system comprising;
a processor;
a computer-readable storage device storing instructions that, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to perform operations comprising;
receiving registration information associated with a mobile subscriber while the mobile subscriber is located within a coverage area associated with a second DMA system of a DMA network;
receiving a location update request, wherein the location update request is related to the mobile subscriber and is sent from a third DMA system of the DMA network;
sending a second location update request to the second DMA system in response to receiving the location update request from the third DMA system;
receiving a destination internet protocol (IP) address associated with the mobile subscriber from the second DMA system; and
sending the destination IP address associated with the mobile subscriber to the third DMA system,wherein the third DMA system is configured to place a call to the second DMA system via a peer-to-peer IP connection based on a source IP address associated with the third DMA system and the destination IP address associated with the mobile subscriber.

Abstract
A method includes receiving, at a first distributed mobile architecture (DMA) system, a call from a first mobile subscriber to a second mobile subscriber and determining whether the second mobile subscriber is registered with one of the first DMA system and a second DMA system based on information stored at an authentication, authorization, and accounting module. The information stored at the AAA module includes a first home location register storing information associated with mobile subscribers registered with the first DMA system and a first community location register storing information associated with a second HLR of the second DMA system.

15. A method comprising:
-
receiving at a first distributed mobile architecture (DMA) system, a call from a first mobile subscriber to a second mobile subscriber; determining whether the second mobile subscriber is registered with one of the first DMA system and a second DMA system based on information stored at an authentication, authorization, and accounting (AAA) module, wherein the information stored at the AAA module includes; a first home location register (HLR) that stores information associated with one or more mobile subscribers that are registered with the first DMA system; and a first community location register (CLR) storing information associated with a second HLR of the second DMA system, wherein the second HLR stores information associated with one or more mobile subscribers that are registered with the second DMA system, and wherein the second DMA system includes a second CLR; and initiating connection of the call from the first mobile subscriber to the second mobile subscriber via the first DMA system and the second DMA system when the second mobile subscriber is registered with the second DMA system. - View Dependent Claims (16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
