Abstract
A system and method for establishing and administering personal home areas for subscribers of a cellular telecommunications network. The system enables one or more Home areas to be designated for each subscriber. The Home areas may vary in size, and the system is capable of applying a different set of service parameters inside an area and outside the area. Each Home area is defined by designating the latitude and longitude coordinates, and the altitude of a subscriber's home location, as well as the radius of the Home area from the home location. A system operator may designate one of several alternate radii by entering the coordinates of the center of the area at various levels of precision, each of which corresponds to a different Home area radius.
