Abstract

A communication network comprises a management system, a core network element, and a radio access network element. The core network element may be a subscriber database or a mobility entity. It is capable of: receiving consent information; receiving from the management system a measurement reporting activation in a network; checking whether at least part of the activation request applies to a subscriber for whom consent information consenting to measurement reporting has been provided; and in the event that consent information consenting to measurement reporting has been provided, ensabling the activation request by communicating with the radio access network element so that measurement reporting in respect of that subscriber may take place. The measurement reporting activation may be for subscriber-based or area-based measurements to be made.
