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