Method and system for restricted access configuration of access point base stations

A method for a restricted access configuration of an access point (AP) base station, comprising:

• retrieving a calling history from an access terminal (AT) associated with the AP base station, the calling history comprising a list of saved telephone numbers called or received by an AT user;
• determining whether any of the saved telephone numbers are associated with a network operator based on at least one identifier for the saved telephone numbers being associated with the network operator;
• and
• configuring a restricted access of the AP base station based at least in part on converting a portion of the saved telephone numbers being associated with the network operator into subscriber identities of corresponding subscribers of a network with which the AP base station is associated, wherein the subscriber identities at least comprise identifiers temporarily generated to provide secure communications between the AP base station and other entities.

A wireless communication device for a restricted access configuration of an access point (AP) base station, comprising:

• a receiver adapted to receive a calling history from an access terminal (AT) associated with the AP base station, the calling history comprising a list of saved telephone numbers called or received by an AT user;
• at least one processor in operative communication with the receiver, wherein the at least one processor is adapted to determine whether any of the saved telephone numbers are associated with a network operator based on at least one identifier for the saved telephone numbers being associated with the network operator;
• and
• a memory in operative communication with the at least one processor and comprising executable code for the at least one processor to configure a restricted access to the AP base station based at least in part on converting a portion of the saved telephone numbers being associated with the network operator into subscriber identities of corresponding subscribers of a network with which the AP base station is associated, wherein the subscriber identities at least comprise identifiers temporarily generated to provide secure communications between the AP base station and other entities.

A wireless communication apparatus for a restricted access configuration of an access point (AP) base station, comprising:

• means for retrieving a calling history from an access terminal (AT) associated with the AP base station, the calling history comprising a list of telephone numbers called or received by an AT user;
• means for determining whether any of the saved telephone numbers are associated with a network operator based on at least one identifier for the saved telephone numbers being associated with the network operator;
• and
• means for configuring a restricted access to the AP base station based at least in part on converting a portion of the saved telephone numbers being associated with the network operator into subscriber identities of corresponding subscribers of a network with which the AP base station is associated, wherein the subscriber identities at least comprise identifiers temporarily generated to provide secure communications between the AP base station and other entities.

A computer program product, comprising:

• a non-transitory computer-readable medium, comprising:
• code for retrieving a calling history from an access terminal (AT) associated with the AP base station, the calling history comprising a list of telephone numbers called or received by an AT user;
• code for determining whether any of the saved telephone numbers are associated with a network operator based on at least one identifier for the saved telephone numbers being associated with the network operator;
• and
• code for configuring a restricted access to the AP base station based at least in part on converting a portion of the saved telephone numbers being associated with the network operator into subscriber identities of corresponding subscribers of a network with which the AP base station is associated, wherein the subscriber identities at least comprise identifiers temporarily generated to provide secure communications between the AP base station and other entities.
