Abstract
Subscriber terminal identification is disclosed. An apparatus controls a base station to form an emulated long term evolution LTE cell such that tracking area code and physical cell identity of the emulated LTE cell are unused by real neighboring LTE cells, and radio frequency power level of the emulated LTE cell within the emulated LTE cell is higher than the radio frequency power levels of the real neighboring LTE cells within the emulated LTE cell; and controls the base station to receive a connection request from a subscriber terminal residing in the emulated LTE cell, whereupon, in the ensuing exchange of messages, the base station is controlled to receive an international mobile subscriber identity from the subscriber terminal.
