name: HLR
full_form: Home Location Register
context: From a UTRAN perspective, maximising the commonality of the various protocols that flow on the Iu interface is desirable. This means at the minimum that: - A common set of radio access bearer services will be offered by UTRAN to the Core Network nodes, regardless of their type (e.g. 3G-MSC or 3G-SGSN). There will be a common functional split between UTRAN and the Core Network nodes, regardless of their type (e.g. 3G-MSC or 3G-SGSN). Signalling in the radio network control plane shall not depend on the specific choice of transport layers.
description: The Home Location Register (HLR) is a database that stores information about subscribers and their mobile devices in a telecommunications network. It plays a crucial role in managing subscriber data, including their profiles, preferences, and service subscriptions. In the context of carrier sharing deployment, the HLR may require additional parameters to support PS-only HSPA access, such as the 'PS only network allowed' parameter, which can be useful for roaming cases.
explanation: The HLR is classified as a Network Function because it performs essential tasks within the telecommunications network by storing and managing subscriber data. Its role in carrier sharing deployment further emphasizes its function as a core network component.
