A method that identifies user equipment (UE) in both idle mode and connected mode in a cellular network is performed when an indication of an emergency situation is received. The method can identify all UEs within a geofenced area. The geofenced area can be an arbitrary shape that is automatically or manually created. The emergency system receives unique identities of UEs in the geofenced area that are provided when the location area identifier value is changed.

Method and system for user equipment identification in a network

A method that identifies user equipment (UE) in both idle mode and connected mode in a cellular network is performed when an indication of an emergency situation is received. A geofenced area is established around a location of the emergency situation, one or more cells are identified in the geofenced area, and an emergency system transmits a request to change a location area identifier value to one or more network providing service to the one or more cells. The emergency system receives unique identities of UEs in the geofenced area that are provided when the location area identifier value is changed.
