METHOD AND NETWORK FOR DETECTION OF DEVICE INFORMATION OF MOBILE STATIONS

The mobile telecommunication network of the invention is used for detection of device information, such as subscriber information and equipment information, The network has a mobile station with subscriber information, a base station subsystem, and a network subsystem. The network of the invention has detecting device information for signals sent from the mobile station, a detector for handling the detected information, and a repository for storing device information. The method detects device information of a mobile station that attaches to the network. The detected device information is compared with the device information stored in the network and stored if it does not correspond to the information previously stored in the network.
