Abstract
A method of establishing connectivity between a mobile network operator (MNO) and a machine type communications (MTC) service provider. A machine type communications interworking function (MTC-IWF) Proxy is hosted on an IPX network service. MTC-IWF Proxy is connected to a MTC-IWF of the MNO and is also connected to a Service Capacities Center (SCS) of the MTC service provider. MTC-IWF Proxy connects to the MNO and the MTC service providers via trigger-service provider (Tsp) interface. Identity mapping services are provided between a first set of subscriber identifiers used by the MNO and a second set of subscriber identities used by the MTC service provider. The MTC-IWF Proxy hides the internal topology and relays signaling protocols used over a Tsp interface, thus enabling the MTC service providers and MNOs communicate without modifying their internal signaling protocols.
