Abstract :
There are 980 Million wireless subscriber with 12 Telecom Service provider (TSPs) in India as on Sept 2015. Each TSP has their own Equipment Identity Register (EIR) to register International Mobile Equipment Identity (IMEI) number of mobile handset which is used for tracking of devices. In traditional telecom infrastructure this EIR is separate for each TSP and updated regularly. If the subscriber loses his or her mobile handset, the telecom service provider blocks the IMEI of that handset in its own network to make the handset useless and cannot be misused by the thief. But if the thief changes the SIM card, the mobile handset is latched to other network in which the IMEI of that handset is not blocked, thereby giving the thief an authorized access to the network. These issues were continuously happening in the past and TRAI observed these limitations with the existing model and came up with a new model that includes a central equipment identity register (CEIR) database in the system. Our paper review traditional EIR model, limitation of EIR and proposed CEIR model based on qualitative analysis of TSPs responses and quantitative analysis of public responses. After enabling CEIR model TSPs can track any mobile device throughout the network
