Vertical Industry User System Identification Number Distribution
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing wireless communication networks face challenges in managing and distinguishing between massive identities of service provider devices, terminals, and individual users, particularly in scenarios where vertical industries and operator networks coexist, due to the inadequacy of basic identification information in terminal IDs.
Innovation Solution
A service-based identity ID format and distribution method are introduced, where the core network element and service provider device integrate an identity distribution entity to configure and distribute identification numbers with service parameter information, enabling effective identity management and communication between network elements.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Loss of information
If basic identification information (IMSI) is used to identify users, then user identity identification is achieved, but data classification and management in multi-service cross scenarios becomes inconvenient due to insufficient information
Solution Approach 1:
The identification number is segmented into multiple distinct parts: network identification information (MCC, MNC), service identification information (service type, service provider ID), terminal identification information (terminal type, terminal ID), and user identification information (MSIN). This segmentation allows each part to serve its specific function while collectively providing comprehensive information for both identification and data classification purposes.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent implements a nested structure where the identification number contains multiple levels of information: the outer layer includes network identification (MCC, MNC), which nests service identification information, which in turn nests terminal identification information, and the innermost layer contains user identification information. This nested arrangement enables hierarchical data classification and management.
2Loss of information
If a service-based identity ID format with multiple information fields is implemented, then data classification and management capability is improved, but the complexity of identity distribution and configuration increases
Solution Approach 1:
The enhanced identification number format serves multiple functions simultaneously: it acts as a unique user identifier, a service classifier, a terminal identifier, and a network routing key. This multi-functionality reduces the need for separate identification systems for different purposes, thereby managing complexity through consolidation rather than proliferation of separate systems.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent changes the parameters of the identification number from simple numeric values to structured data fields with specific meanings (MCC, MNC, service type, service provider ID, terminal type, terminal ID, MSIN). This parameter transformation enables rich information encoding while maintaining a standardized format that can be processed systematically, managing complexity through standardization.

AI summary
Embodiments of the present invention disclose a vertical industry user system, including a service provider device, a terminal, a core network element, and a base station. The core network element is configured to: obtain a distribution instruction, and according to the distribution instruction, configure a core network identification number for the core network element, distribute a provider identification number to the service provider device, and distribute a base station identification number to the base station. The service provider device is configured to receive the provider identification number. The base station is configured to receive the base station identification number. The terminal is configured to receive a terminal identification number distributed by the service provider device, the base station, or the core network element, where the core network identification number includes first service parameter information, the provider identification number includes second service parameter information, the base station identification number includes third service parameter information, and the terminal identification number includes fourth service parameter information. The embodiments of the present invention further provide an identification number distribution method.
