Dynamically creating a globally unique identified of a subscriber device based on an identified of an aggregation device and identification information of the subscriber device for circuit-switched and packet-switched communication systems
First Claim
1. A method of registering a mobile device located in a first network with a packet-switched services network, comprising:
- receiving, from an aggregation device in the first network, a registration request containing a SIP address of record of the aggregation device and identification information created by the aggregation device on behalf of the mobile device, wherein the identification information comprises an identifier of the aggregation device and an identifier of the mobile device; and
dynamically creating a Globally Routable User Agent Uniform Resource Identifier (GRUU) used to uniquely identify the mobile device in the packet-switched services network, the GRUU being a combination of the SIP address of record of the aggregation device and the identification information created by the aggregation device on behalf of the mobile device;
wherein the mobile device is configured to access services of the packet-switched services network through the aggregation device.

Abstract
To register a mobile device located in a first network with a packet-switched services network, a registration request is received from an aggregation device in the first network. The registration request contains an identifier of the aggregation device and identification information of the mobile device, where the identification information is previously unknown to the packet-switched services network. A globally unique identifier of the mobile device is dynamically created based on the identifier of the aggregation device and the identification information of the mobile device, wherein the globally unique identifier is used for uniquely identifying the mobile device in the packet-switched services network.

19. A method of registering a mobile device located in a first network with a packet-switched services network, comprising:
-
receiving, from an aggregation device in the first network, a registration request containing a SIP address of record of the aggregation device and identification information created by the aggregation device on behalf of the mobile device, wherein the identification information comprises a SIP.INSTANCE parameter, wherein the SIP.INSTANCE parameter comprises a concatenation of a MAC address of the aggregation device, a mobile identity number of the mobile device, and an electronic serial number of the mobile device; and dynamically creating a Globally Routable User Agent Uniform Resource Identifier (GRUU) used to uniquely identify the mobile device in the packet-switched services network, the GRUU being a combination of the SIP address of record of the aggregation device and the identification information created by the aggregation device on behalf of the mobile device. - View Dependent Claims (20)
