Abstract

A mobility node is configured to track a mobility of entities. A pool of mobility nodes serve a common section of a cellular network, wherein for each of the mobile entities a unique identifier is used to uniquely identify the corresponding mobile entity and a temporary identifier is used to identify the corresponding mobile entity in at least one section of the cellular network. A message is received for one of the mobile entities identifying the mobile entity by an unknown temporary identifier. An identification request is transmitted to a storage unit storing information allowing a unique identifier to be determined based on a temporary identifier, the identification request requesting the unique identifier based on the unknown temporary identifier. A response to the transmitted identification request is received including information allowing the unique identifier to be determined. A reaction message is transmitted taking into account the unique identifier.
