- the present invention relates broadly to a method for mobile communication outside a home mobile network, a mobile phone adapted to execute a method for mobile communication outside a home mobile network, and an International Roaming Network (IRN) server for mobile communication outside a home mobile network.
- IRN International Roaming Network
- a subscriber In mobile (in other words, cellular) communication, a subscriber is able to enjoy mobile communication services as long as he is within the geographical coverage area of the subscribed (i.e. home) network. As he leaves the coverage area, he may be able to maintain his cellular connectivity by roaming or by subscribing to another network that has coverage in the visited location.
- Roaming is defined by the Global System for Mobile communication Association (GSM Association) as the ability for a cellular customer to automatically make and receive voice calls, send and receive data, or access other services when traveiling outside the geographical coverage area of a home network, by means of using a visited network. With roaming, the user may still be able to use the same identification device, such as a Subscriber Identity Module (SIWI) card, and its associated phone number while at the visited network. However, roaming is only possible if there is a roaming agreement between the operators (in other words, service providers) of the home network and the visited network. In many circumstances, such roaming agreements are only available for a number of locations, and not for many other locations of interest.
- GSM Association Global System for Mobile communication Association
- SIWI Subscriber Identity Module
- the other alternative to maintain cellular connectivity at the visited location may comprise subscribing to another network that has coverage at that location, for example, through a post-paid service.
- the user may be issued with a new identification device, such as a SIM card with a stored value, and a new phone number.
- a new identification device such as a SIM card with a stored value

For example, the user may need to dial a vendor-specific gateway number, go through an Interactive Voice Response (IVR) menu, key in an access code or Personal Identification Number (PlN) 1 and finally dial the destination number.

- the second phone number 416 may be from an IP phone that connects directly to the IRN server 408 via an IP network, thereby skipping the visited network.
- a login step using the same account information and tRN gateway number may be required prior to making the call.
- the IRN server 408 then processes the call in the same way as described above.
- the call may be transmitted directly through an IP network to the IRN server 408 where it is forwarded to the destination phone number 604.
- the method and system as described thus may effectively achieve roaming at a visited location even without the need for any roaming agreement.
- the cost of calls made with the method and system of the present invention can also be made substantially cheaper than conventional roaming as billing can be centralised into one account.
- the method and system according to the present invention may be made compatible with GSM and CDMA standards in mobile communication such that connectivity is maintained even if the home network and the visited network are of different standards.
- the dialling sequence is the same as if the mobile device is still within the home network, i.e. by either entering a number of choosing a number from an address book followed by pressing the call button.
- the method and system described are especially useful for travellers who wish to be contactable through the phone number at the home network and who wish to minimise roaming charges because of extensive phone usage at the visited location.
