DISABLING ROAMING IN OVERLAPPING COVERAGE AREAS OF WIRELESS TELECOMMUNICATIONS NETWORKS

A telecommunications network provides selective roaming for user equipment (UE) devices registered to the network, allowing some UE devices to operate on a roaming network in some geographic regions and disallowing other UE devices to access roaming networks. While a target UE device is operating on a roaming network, the telecommunications network monitors changes in location of the target device. If the target UE device is detected to have moved into an overlapping coverage area, covered by both the telecommunications network and the roaming network, the telecommunications network generates a command to cancel the subscription of the target UE device to the roaming network.
