An apparatus, method and system for matching subscriber states in network
in which public land mobile network and wired/wireless private network
are interworked are disclosed. The system matches subscriber state
information of the public network to subscriber state information of the
private network by allowing the private network to transmit state
information of a mobile station toward the public network, the mobile
station being located in a public and private cell area. The method
includes the steps of a) allowing the private network to check state of a
mobile station located in a public and private cell area and transmit the
subscriber state information associated with the mobile station toward
the public network; and b) allowing the public network to receive the
subscriber state information and update the state of the mobile station
in a visitor location register. The step a) is carried out when the state
of the mobile station is changed or when an incoming signal from the
public network is directed to the mobile station, which is in a
local-area call connection state.
