Abstract
In general, a method performed on a portable access terminal operating in an active mode includes detecting a presence of a personal base station. An encoded identification message transmitted from the personal base station is received, and the encoded identification message includes a unique identifier associated with the personal base station. The encoded identification message is decoded to extract the unique identifier, and the unique identifier is transmitted to a source network entity.
