ABSTRACT:
A system and method in a radio telecommunications network of utilizing a plurality of telephone numbers with a single mobile telephone by changes to the network rather than the mobile telephone are disclosed. The system provides a mobile subscriber with an indication of the directory number dialed by the calling party. A plurality of directory numbers, a plurality of mobile identification numbers (MINs), and a plurality of alpha-numeric strings are stored in a database in the network such as a home location register (HLR). Several directory numbers are associated with the mobile telephone's MIN, and then each directory number is associated with an alpha-numeric string. When a directory number is dialed, an associated MIN and alpha-numeric string are identified. The MIN and alpha-numeric string are then transported through the network to the mobile telephone while the mobile telephone is being alerted. The called subscriber is informed of the dialed directory number either by a short message service (SMS) message carrying the alpha-numeric string, or by substituting the dialed directory number for a calling line identification (CLI) number in an Alert With Info signal sent to the mobile telephone.
