SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR VALIDATING A USER EQUIPMENT LOCATION IN A TELECOMMUNICATION NETWORK

摘要

It is disclosed a method for validating a location provided by a user equipment requesting a service to a telecommunication network. The network receives (202) an information relating to the location of said user equipment and detects (203-205) the network access point to which said user equipment is connected. The method then provides for retrieving in a database historical information relative to locations of user equipments during connections to the detected network access point. A validation index is automatically generated based on the received location and on the retrieved historical information. The location provided by the user equipment is validated based on the validation index. A telecommunication network suitable to implement the method is also disclosed.
