Abstract

A method and system for providing a User Equipment (UE) (101) with a Tracking Area Identity (TAI) list during a Tracking Area Update (TAU) procedure. The TAI is UE specific and is based on a visitation history (305) of the UE (101). If a pre-existing visitation history of the UE does not exist, a TAI is compiled using other UEs featuring at least one operational similarity as the current UE (101).
