Abstract
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.
