locationArea

Validations ASN.1 Parent Types

Identification of the Location Area Code of the mobile equipment handling the call.

Derivation:

GSM item locationAreaCode (3GPP TS 32.005).

Conditionality:

Must be present within groups

                                Network Location

                                GPRS Network Location

except where not supported by the network or the call does not terminate at the equipment e.g. in call forwarding cases.

Is not present for WLAN network usage.

The  Location Area Code is a two octet string as defined in 3GPP TS 44.008.
For the TAP the octets are converted to a decimal integer number in the range 00000 to 65535.  The leading zeros are significant.        E.g.
0110011000110000 equates to 26160
1001110000001010 equates to 39946
0001000011110001 equates to 04337
