Abstract
Methods and systems for determining the identity of a genuine Base Station (BS) that serves a rogue BS, i.e., the genuine BS used by the rogue BS to exchange the communication between the solicited terminal and the cellular network. The ability to identify rogue-serving BSs is a valuable tool in combatting rogue BSs. For example, the rogue BS will often be located in close proximity to the rogue-serving BS, at least in closer proximity than other genuine BSs. Identifying the rogue-serving BS may therefore assist in locating the rogue BS. Additionally or alternatively, identifying the rogue-serving BS may assist in interfering with the operation of the rogue BS, and/or obtaining information regarding wireless terminals solicited by the rogue BS.
