Making international mobile subscriber identity available at base station
First Claim
1. A computer-implemented method comprising:
- receiving, by a base station, data in response to a data request, wherein the data request is transmitted by a user equipment to the base station, the received data is transmitted from a core network communicatively coupled to the base station and includes a header including an international mobile subscriber identifier, the international mobile subscriber identifier is associated with the user equipment and added by the core network prior to transmission to the base station;
removing, by the base station, the international mobile subscriber identifier from the received data;
generating, by the base station, based on the removed international mobile subscriber identifier, a first data for use in performing at least one communication function; and
transmitting, by the base station, the first data to at least one server communicatively coupled to the base station.

Abstract
The subject matter described herein generally relates to making an international mobile subscriber identity (IMSI) available at a base station, such as an evolved node (eNodeB) base station, within a cellular network, for example, a long term evolution communications system. The base station can receive data in response to a data request. The received data can include a header including an international mobile subscriber identifier. The base station can generate a first data for use in performing at least one communication function based on the received international mobile subscriber identifier. The base station can transmit the first data to at least one server communicatively coupled to the base station. Related apparatuses, systems, techniques and articles are also described.
