Method and device for accessing and obtaining user equipment context and user equipment identity
First Claim
1. A method for accessing identification information of a user equipment (UE), comprising:
- judging, by an eNodeB, whether a Globally Unique Mobility Management Entity Identifier (GUMMEI) carried by the UE or a Mobility Management Entity Group Identity (MMEGI) in the GUMMEI is allocated by a System Architecture Evolution (SAE) network or mapped from a temporary identity of a Second Generation/Third Generation (2G/3G) network;
if the GUMMEI or the MMEGI is allocated by the SAE network, selecting, by the eNodeB, a first Mobility Management Entity (MME) according to one of the following;
(a) the GUMMEI, (b) the MMEGI and a Mobility Management Entity Code (MMEC), and (c) a selected Public Land Mobile Network Identity (PLMN-id), the MMEGI and the MMEC, and transmitting, by the eNodeB, the identification information of the UE to the selected first MME;
andif the GUMMEI or MMEGI is mapped from the temporary identity of the 2G/3G network, selecting, by the eNodeB, a second MME according to one of the following;
(a) a Mobile Country Code (MCC), a Mobile Network Code (MNC) and an MMEC in the GUMMEI, (b) the MMEC in the GUMMEI, and (c) the MMEC in the GUMMEI and the selected PLMN-id, and transmitting, by the eNodeB, the identification information of the UE to the selected second MME.

Abstract
A method and device for accessing and obtaining user equipment (UE) context and UE identity are provided. The method for access includes: when a UE accesses a System Architecture Evolution (SAE) network, judging, by a network node, whether a Globally Unique Mobility Management Entity Identifier (GUMMEI) carried by the UE or a Mobility Management Entity Group Identity (MMEGI) in the GUMMEI is allocated or mapped by the SAE network; if the GUMMEI or MMEGI is allocated by the SAE network, selecting, by the network node, a Mobility Management Entity (MME) according to the GUMMEIA network device includes an identity attribute obtaining module and a network resource node allocation module. Therefore, the access of the UE is achieved.

13. An apparatus for accessing identification information of a user equipment (UE), comprising a processor and a transmitter, wherein
the processor is configured to judge whether a Globally Unique Mobility Management Entity Identifier (GUMMEI) carried by the UE or a Mobility Management Entity Group Identity (MMEGI) in the GUMMEI is allocated by a System Architecture Evolution (SAE) network or mapped from a temporary identity of a Second Generation/Third Generation (2G/3G) network; -
if the GUMMEI or the MMEGI is allocated by the SAE network, the processor is configured to select a first Mobility Management Entity (MME) according to one of the following;
(a) the GUMMEI, (b) the MMEGI and a Mobility Management Entity Code (MMEC), and (c) a selected Public Land Mobile Network Identity (PLMN-id), the MMEGI and the MMEC, andthe transmitter is configured to transmit the identification information of the UE to the first MME selected by the processor; and if the GUMMEI or the MMEGI is mapped from the temporary identity of the 2G/3G network, the processor is configured to select a second MME according to one of the following;
(a) a Mobile Country Code (MCC) a Mobile Network Code (MNC) and an MMEC in the GUMMEI, (b) the MMEC in the GUMMEI, and (c) the MMEC in the GUMMEI and the selected PLMN-id, andthe transmitter is configured to transmit the identification information of the UE to the second MME selected by the processor. - View Dependent Claims (14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
