Gateway node for communications

Abstract

In the present solution, a gateway node (GMLC-I, PDC) for communication is configured to receive a find-subscribers-in-area request from an application node (LAP), and perform a prioritization act according to predetermined prioritization criteria. The gateway node (GMLC-I, PDC) is configured to perform the prioritization act on the basis of passive location data received in the gateway node (P DC), and select one or more user terminals polling priority user terminus (UE, UE2). On the basis of said selection, the gateway node (GMLC-I, PDC) is configured to request a core network node (MSCNLR) to perform an act for generating updated passive location data. Thus, the gateway node (PDC) is configured to receive updated passive location data including information on detected polling priority user terminals (UE, UE2). The gateway node (GMLC-I, PDC) is configured to store the received updated passive location data.
