A METHOD AND AN APPARATUS FOR ACCESS CONTROL IN A MOBIL COMMUNICATIONS SYSTEM

摘要

The embodiments of the present invention relate to an apparatus and a method of controlling access of a UE (30, 40) in a wireless telecommunications system comprising a RAN that is adapted to communicate with the core network (34, 44). According to the method, a temporary identity of the UE (30, 40) attempting to accessing a femto RBS (31, 41) is acquired and it is further determined if the temporary identity of the UE (30, 40) is associated with a permanent identity of the UE and at least the identity of the femto RBS. In case the temporary identity is associated with the permanent identity of the UE (30, 40) and with the identity of the femto RBS, the UE (30, 40) is authorized access, otherwise it is denied access.
