  2. IMSI and 1xEV-DO November 30, 2005 Agenda • 1xEV-DO terminology • 1xEV-DO architecture and interfaces • IMSI and 1xEV-DO devices • 1xEV-DO and MN ID • Billing impacts of 1xEV-DO IMSI and MN ID • IMSI_T and 1xEV-DO • Roaming Issues • Conclusions

  3. IMSI and 1xEV-DO November 30, 2005 1xEV-DO Terminology

  4. IMSI and 1xEV-DO November 30, 2005 1xEV-DO Interfaces

  5. IMSI and 1xEV-DO November 30, 2005 IMSI and 1xEV-DO Devices • IS-95/CDMA2000 MS uses IMSI/MIN for RAN signaling • 1xEV-DO AT uses UATI (Unicast Access Terminal Identifier) for RAN signaling • An 1xEV-DO-only AT does not require an IMSI/MIN • 1xEV-DO hybrid devices use an IMSI/MIN for 1xRTT access

  6. IMSI and 1xEV-DO November 30, 2005 1xEV-DO and Mobile Node Identification (MN ID) • 1xEV-DO device identified by MN ID on A8/A9 and A10/A11 interfaces • MN ID is same field as IMSI/MIN for 1xRTT • If A12 authentication is used, a consistent MN ID (Callback-ID attribute) is returned from AN-AAA • Otherwise a pseudo IMSI is generated per session (different each time) • If A12 authentication used, and MN ID = 1xRTT IMSI/MIN • 1xEV-DO<->1x handoffs optimized for same PDSN • No PPP re-negotiation required • If MIP used, no binding update is required

  7. IMSI and 1xEV-DO November 30, 2005 Billing impacts of 1xEV-DO IMSI and MN ID • Important packet data billing field is MSID (IMSI or MIN) • Exists as A1 attribute in accounting UDR • Delivered as an airlink record for 1xRTT (a1 attribute) • A1 is populated by MN ID for 1xEV-DO • A12 authentication required for MN ID to be same as MSID

  8. IMSI and 1xEV-DO November 30, 2005 IMSI_T and 1xEV-DO • For 1xRTT, IMSI_T issues are already being addressed • For 1xEV-DO, the MN ID is whatever is provisioned in MN-AAA • Up to the operator to provision MN-AAA according to preference • If MN ID = IMSI_T, then that will be used for 1xEV-DO billing • MN ID = MSID required for optimized handoffs • Not sure if MSID will be IMSI_T or IMSI_M

  9. IMSI and 1xEV-DO November 30, 2005 Roaming Considerations • A12 authentication is required for 1xEV-DO roaming • Will ensure optimized handoffs available while roaming • Will ensure consistent billing field available while roaming (MSID, A1 attribute)

  10. IMSI and 1xEV-DO November 30, 2005 Conclusions • If A12 used, no 1xEV-DO roaming issue • Potential issue regarding IMSI_T • Provision MN ID in MN-AAA with IMSI_M or IMSI_T • Could affect handoffs and/or billing
