<p>A mobile telecommunications network (100) and method for identifying hierarchical and overlapping radio coverage areas including a combination of at least one location area (A-F) and at least one routing area (A'-F'''). More specifically, the mobile telecommunications network (100) includes a first switching center (114) and a second switching center (116) coupled to a controller (118) that manages a plurality of location. (A-F) areas and a plurality of routing areas (A'-F'''). The location areas (A-F) and routing areas (A'-F''') are also controlled by the first switching center (114) and the second switching center (116), respectively. The mobile telecommunications network (100) further includes a plurality of cells (a-f), where the cells (a-f) accommodate at least one of the location areas (A-F) and at least one of the routing areas (A'-F'''). Lastly, the mobile telecommunications network (100) further includes an identification system (200) for identifying at least one combination identifier (204, 206, 306, 308, 404) representative of the at least one location area (A-F) and the at least one routing area (A'-F''') accommodated by each cell (a-f).</p> |
