Select IMSI as the new identification number.

3C shows a location-specific identification number list for which IMSI is designated for each cell ID. As described above, the mobile subscriber can designate not only IMSI for each region but also IMSI for each cell ID. In this case, since the mobile subscriber does not know the cell ID, if the mobile subscriber specifies the IMSI in the region, the mobile terminal 100 may know the cell ID of the base station that provides the mobile communication service to the region. The mobile communication terminal 100 may designate a cell ID at that time and an IMSI corresponding thereto. This allows the mobile subscriber to designate different IMSIs according to more detailed locations.

3D shows a list of identification numbers by IMSI assigned by country, region, and cell ID. As described with reference to 3A to 3C, the mobile subscriber can designate IMSI for each country, region, or cell ID, but can also specify IMSI by subdividing cell ID according to region for each country. In addition, IMSI can be specified per network code.

In addition, since the mobile subscriber can not specify IMSI for every country, every network, every region, and every cell ID, as shown in 3A to 3D, the 'other' setting is specified in the location identification number list. In non-regional regions, it may be possible to specify an IMSI corresponding to 'Other'. Here, the IMSI corresponding to 'other' becomes the basic IMSI.

Therefore, if the mobile communication subscriber does not specify the IMSI, or if the location of the mobile communication terminal 100 is not in the location-specific identification number list, the default IMSI specified in 'other' is selected as the new identification number.

The above description is merely illustrative of the technical idea of the present invention, and those skilled in the art to which the present invention pertains may make various modifications and changes without departing from the essential characteristics of the present invention. Therefore, the embodiments disclosed in the present invention are not intended to limit the technical idea of the present invention but to describe the present invention, and the scope of the technical idea of the present invention is not limited by these embodiments.
