Abstract

The method for transferring data sends the data as part of a first permanent identifier associated with an end user in a communication system. The first permanent identifier is sent along with a second permanent identifier, also associated with the end user, during a communication procedure prior to establishing a traffic channel in the communication system. Besides the data, the first permanent identifier includes routing information to a home system forming part of the communication system. Based at least in part on recognizing the second permanent identifier, a home system sends at least the first permanent identifier to a destination entity. The destination entity extracts the data from the first permanent identifier. In this manner, a traffic channel does not need to be established to transmit the data.
