Method for transferring data

A method of transferring data in mobile communication system, comprising:

• a) receiving data;
• b) forming a first permanent identifier including a portion of the received data and routing information to a home system;
• c) forming an expanded second permanent identifier having a second permanent identifier portion and an expanded portion, and the expanded portion including a portion of the received data;
• d) sending, from a communication device, at least the first permanent identifier and the expanded second permanent identifier, wherein the step a) receives data from a user of the communication device.

A method of transferring data in mobile communication system, comprising:

• a) receiving data;
• b) forming a first permanent identifier including a portion of the received data and routing information to a home system;
• c) forming an expanded second permanent identifier having a second permanent identifier portion and an expanded portion, and the expanded portion including a portion of the received data;
• d) sending, from a communication device, at least the first permanent identifier and the expanded second permanent identifier,
• wherein the step a) receives data from an end user system including or connected to the communication device.

A method of transferring data in mobile communication system, comprising:

• a) receiving data;
• b) forming a first permanent identifier including a portion of the received data and routing information to a home system;
• c) forming an expanded second permanent identifier having a second permanent identifier portion and an expanded portion, and the expanded portion including a portion of the received data;
• d) sending, from a communication device, at least the first permanent identifier and the expanded second permanent identifier,
• wherein the step b) forms the first permanent identifier to further include destination entity routing information indicating to which destination entity to route the first permanent identifier.

A method of processing permanent identifiers in a mobile communication system, comprising:

• a) storing at least one permanent identifier of a first type, permanent identifiers of the first type being expanded permanent identifiers;
• b) receiving a permanent identifier of the first type and a permanent identifier of a second type, the received permanent identifier of the first type including identification information for the mobile communication system and data;
• c) determining if a predetermined portion of the received permanent identifier of the first type matches a corresponding portion in one of the stored permanent identifiers of the first type;
• d) sending the received permanent identifiers of the first and second types to a destination entity if the step c) determines a match exists.

A method of processing a permanent identifier, comprising:

• a) receiving a permanent identifier of a first type and a permanent identifier of the second type sent by a communication device, the permanent identifier of the second type being an expanded permanent identifier;
• b) extracting a portion of the permanent identifier of the first type as first data, said first data not being used to validate an end user of the communication device;
• and
• c) extracting part of an expanded portion of the permanent identifier of the second type as second data, said second data not being used to validate the end user of the communication device.

A method of processing a permanent identifier, comprising:

• a) receiving a permanent identifier of a first type and a permanent identifier of the second type sent by a communication device, the permanent identifier of the second type being an expanded permanent identifier;
• b) extracting a portion of the permanent identifier of the first type as first data, said first data not being identification information associated with the communication device or an end user of the communication device;
• and
• c) extracting part of an expanded portion of the permanent identifier of the second type as second data, said second data not being identification information associated with the communication device or an end user of the communication device.
