The feature Number Portability allows subscribers to keep their directory number when they move within the same local area or change to another network operator.There exists four basic types of portability:

• Location Portability Change location but keep the Operator and the number.

• Service Provider Portability for Non-geographic Numbers Service numbers (e.g. IN-Services) ported from one operator to another.

• Service Provider Portability for Geographic Numbers Change from one Operator to another, but keep the number.

Portability Concept

• Service Portability E.g. change from POTS to ISDN

SIEMENSPossibilities for NP Database

NP Database switch integrated (EWSD)

Intelligent Network integrated (IN@vantage)

SA STP integrated (SURPASS hiS 700)hiS 700

Most operators and regulators are opting for a centralized number portability (NP) solution because it guarantees efficient use of network resources and independence from competitors. SA STP integrated NP database is high-performance and innovative solutions that is easy to implement and manage.

Number Portability - Successful ImplementationThe success of a Number Portability implementation depends on 2 factors:

Number Portability - Implementation

2. Administrative Procedure:

One-stop-shopping Well defined processes Short execution cycles Defined porting windows Short disruption time for change-over Low error rates Clearly defined escalation procedures

1. Technical Implementation:

Correct call routing from donor to recipient network Correct charging

Page 14: N umber  P ortability

SIEMENS

Operators have to co-operate to execute NP processes

NP processes are defined national wide

Operators exchange messages in a defined national protocol

In the national NP processes operators systems have to be integrated for full automation

The National Integration is the focus of GNMS

Administration – National Integration

Number Portability - Central Reference Database

Why CRDB?

National Survey

Authorized Reference Data (e.g. for new operators)

Operation

by NRA (National Regulatory Authority)

by independent 3rd party on behalf of NRA

by a consortium of the operators (and the NRA)

by independent 3rd party on behalf of a consortium of the operators

by one operator on behalf of the NRA
