Emergency call handling may, in the near future, require terminal unit location information to be provided to emergency service centers. Exemplary embodiments of the present invention provide techniques which pass the mobile unit's phone number along to an appropriate emergency service centers in addition to location information. This information can be made available to an adjunct monitoring system by either changing the mobile station identity used to package (Layer 2) an access attempt or by commanding a mobile or base station to explicitly transmit the mobile unit's dialable number during an emergency access so that the adjunct system can read and forward this number. |
