Patent ID: 11706694

Abstract:
Systems and methods for closed subscriber group identity (CSG ID) allocation for radio access network (RAN) sharing between different wireless telecommunication network providers can include a second CSG administration server receiving a unique first list of CSG IDs from a first CSG administration server, comparing the CSG IDs of the unique first list with a unique second list of CSG IDs associated with the second CSG administration server, and automatically adding to the unique second list ones of the CSG IDs from the unique first list that are absent from the unique second list. If a first one of the CSG IDs from the unique first list is already assigned in the unique second list, a new E-UTRAN Cell Global Identifier (ECGI) is added for use with the first one of the CSG IDs and sent therewith to the first CSG administration server to be added to the unique first list.
