## Abstract

In one embodiment, a mobile terminal (200) transmits behavior data of the mobile terminal (200) to a monitoring server (700). The monitoring server (700) acquires the behavior data of the mobile terminal (200), and performs communication with a subscriber server (400) to update the subscriber data (410) regarding the mobile terminal (200) based on the behavior data. The subscriber server (400) updates a subscriber data (410) based on the communication with the monitoring server (700).

## Claims

### Claim 1

A first node configured to manage subscription data of a mobile terminal in a mobile core network, the first node comprising:
a receiver configured to receive first information related to communication of the mobile terminal, the first information being transmitted from an application function node, the application function node being in an external network connected to the mobile core network; and
a processor configured to request to store the first information in a storage as part of the subscription data of the mobile terminal, the first information being used to determine second information, the second information being transmitted, wherein
the second information is used to control a state transition of the mobile terminal by a second node in a radio access network.

### Claim 2 (depends on 1)

The home subscriber server according to claim 1, wherein the first information is transmitted in an update request message.

### Claim 3 (depends on 1)

The home subscriber server according to claim 1, wherein the state transition is a change between a CONNECTED state and an IDLE state of the mobile terminal.

### Claim 4

A method performed by a first node configured to manage subscription data of a mobile terminal in a mobile core network, the method comprising:
receiving first information related to communication of the mobile terminal, the first information being transmitted from an application function node, the application function node being in an external network connected to the mobile core network;
requesting to store the first information in a storage as part of the subscription data of the mobile terminal, the first information being used to determine second information, the second information being transmitted,
wherein the second information is used to control a state transition of the mobile terminal by a second node in a radio access network.

### Claim 5 (depends on 4)

The method according to claim 4, wherein the first information is transmitted in an update request message.

### Claim 6 (depends on 4)

The method according to claim 4, wherein the state transition is a change between a CONNECTED state and an IDLE state of the mobile terminal.

### Claim 7

A communication system comprising a core network and a radio access network, the communication system further comprising:
a first node configured to:
manage subscription data of a mobile terminal in the mobile core network;
receive first information related to communication of the mobile terminal, the first information being transmitted from an application function node, the application function node being in an external network connected to the mobile core network; and
request to store the first information in a storage as part of the subscription data of the mobile terminal, the first information being used to determine second information, the second information being transmitted; and
a second node arranged in the radio access network and configured to:
receive the second information; and
control a state transition of the mobile terminal based on the second information.

### Claim 8 (depends on 7)

The communication system according to claim 7, wherein the first information is transmitted in an update request message.

### Claim 9 (depends on 7)

The communication system according to claim 7, wherein the state transition is a change between a CONNECTED state and an IDLE state of the mobile terminal.
