Integration procedure of base station or management switch, and devices that carry out said procedure Technical Domain The present invention relates to a method of integrating radio networks to the European TETRA standard in a network of radios of the EPS and LTE type "Long Term Evolution". This invention allows the use of TETRA radio terminals in said third or fourth generation network or higher, offering services of the TETRA networks and direct interconnections with the non-TETRA radio terminals such as the 3GPP LTE family radio terminals. Prior art The radio networks of the TETRA standard are spread throughout the world; they are used in a professional framework, particularly for the needs of public security forces. These networks use narrow bands of reserved frequencies, with 25 kHz spaced channels and offer a very complete set of functions that do not require high flow. Networks are made up of base stations whose scope is relatively important. Conversely, fourth generation and higher radio networks, mainly based on 3GPP LTE Advanced technology, use base stations of often lower range in different frequency bands, used with very wide channels that offer services that require high flows. The connection of these two types of networks is of great interest. From US 6711417 B1 and US 2007/041360 A1, network connection procedures are known. In particular, it is planned to develop radio terminals capable of transmitting and receiving in the two modes (TETRA and LTE) configured to use LTE networks when they are covered by them and TETRA networks otherwise. This procedure of connecting the two types of networks, however, has numerous drawbacks. In particular, this solution requires the complete change of the terminal parks, as well as the placement of high-level service gateways. On the other hand, the use of 3GPP LTE networks as a transport layer for TETRA networks is planned: this method also has numerous drawbacks. In particular, it does not allow a direct union of the LTE radio terminals and the TETRA radio terminals. Finally, there are known gateways (“gateway”) between a TETRA network and an EPS network with LTE radio access. These gateways offer simple network interconnection functions, without being able to ensure real integration. For example, mobility is not managed and a calling terminal must dial a correspondent's number based on where it is supposed to be. The method presented here allows the complete interconnection of TETRA networks and third or fourth generation or higher bandwidth networks, such as networks with the 3GPP EPS standard that carry out radio accesses of the LTE family without present the aforementioned drawbacks while offering direct communication facilities between terminals of different technologies and offer the possibility of optimizing the use of the radio spectrum. An objective of the present invention is to propose a method and device for connecting TETRA networks and third and fourth generation radio networks or higher, typically based on the family of EPS and 3GPP LTE standards, allowing reuse of the existing radio terminal parks. Another objective of the present invention is to propose a method and a device for connecting TETRA networks and third or fourth generation radio networks or higher, based on the family of 3GPP EPS and 3GPP LTE technologies that allow provision of existing 'TETRA' services. Another objective of the present invention is to propose a method and a device for connecting TETRA networks and third or fourth generation radio networks or higher, based on the family of 3GPP EPS and LTE technologies, allowing migration simple during the evolution of a TETRA network towards a network of the family of 3GPP EPS and 3GPP LTE technologies. Another objective of the present invention is to propose a method and a device for connecting TETRA networks and networks of the 3GPP EPS and 3GPP LTE family of technologies allowing economic optimization between networks of the 3GPP EPS and 3GPP technology family LTE in urban environment and TETRA networks in isolated environment, directly connected to each other. Another objective of the present invention is to propose a method and device for connecting TETRA networks and third or fourth generation radio networks or higher, 3GPP LTE that allows a reuse of the radio frequency channels allowed to TETRA networks (narrowband channels) in places where radio channels of third or fourth generation networks or higher (broadband channels), subject to interconnection, LTE frequencies are not available (or in places where it is not profitable deploy third or fourth generation or higher 3GPP LTE radio networks).

Thus, each TETRA terminal has an identical IMSI number to those used by third or fourth generation networks or higher, of the 3GPP EPS and 3GPP LTE family of technologies. Thus, the base station 100, eTBS, according to the invention allows a complete integration of the TETRA networks and the third or fourth generation networks or higher, of the 3GPP EPS and 3GPP LTE family of technologies. Mobility is assured at two levels: - by the third or fourth generation network or higher, of the family of 3GPP EPS and LTE technologies that locates 10 (in its HSS / HLR database) the location of the TETRA subnet directly connected to the third or fourth generation network or higher, from the family of 3GPP EPS and 3GPP LTE technologies, and - by the TETRA subnet that locates the base station in which the mobile is written. In the case where the TETRA subnet only consists of a single radio base station, this mechanism is simplified within the TETRA subnet. Of course, the invention is not limited to the examples just described and numerous adaptations can be contributed to these examples without departing from the scope of the invention.
