LNP gives wireless customers greater freedom and flexibility to choose the carrier that best meets their needs without having to lose a significant investment they have made in the wireless phone number.
LNP also enables consumers to cut the cord and transfer their landline number to a wireless phone.
The L in 'LNP' stands for 'local,' which means that wireless subscribers are not entitled to move from, say, New York to San Francisco, or even New York to Philadelphia and keep the same phone number.

LNP allows residential and business telephone consumers to change telephone service providers or move to new locations within the same local service area and still keep the same telephone numbers.
Wireless-to-Wireline LNP A wireless customer may switch their wireless telephone service to a local wireline service provider, and retain their wireless telephone number, as long as the wireline company is providing service in the same local service area as the wireless carrier.
Telephone companies are authorized, but not required, by the federal government to recover their costs associated with making LNP available, and are limited on how long they may impose any fees for that cost recovery to five years from the date the local telephone company first begins collecting the charge from its customers.

 LNP Engineering Plastics, Inc., et al. v. Miller Waste Mills, Inc.
In September 1996, LNP sued RTP for infringement of all three patents, asserting claim 3 of the '262 patent and claim 1 of the '450 and '889 patents.
LNP appeals the district court's grant of JMOL that claim 1 of the '889 patent is invalid for failure to meet the written description requirement and the district court's denial of LNP's motion for a new trial on willful infringement.
LNP asserts that opinions of counsel obtained two years after the accused infringer has notice are insufficient to rebut an accusation of willful infringement and should, therefore, be inadmissible.

 LNP Primer ( Number Portability )   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
LNP is a circuit-switched network capability which allows an end-user to change Service Provider (SP), location, and/or service type without having to change their telephone number.
The LNP capabilities which need to be supported by wireless networks depend on the MSA served and the date.
LNP affects the way numbers are translated and outpulsed and it creates a requirement for additional information for numbers that are used in billing records.

 LegOS Network Protocol
Although LNP can be used for communication between many devices, with any mixture of computers and RCXs, my experience only covers communication between my computer and a single RCX, and only that situation will be discussed.
LNP is still very useful in this case, since it takes care of a lot of details and is generally easier to work with than raw IR communication.
LNP is always running on the RCX, but it is still a good idea to do a little setup before using it.

 Internet Telephony Feature Article
LNP is among the largest and most complex projects ever undertaken in the public switched telephone network (PSTN).
For example, using the LNP infrastructure to provide a unified numbering service across networks such as wireless/mobile, IP and fixed line, and Centrex would enable carriers to leverage their investment in LNP to generate new revenues and increase customer loyalty.
To put the cost of deploying LNP into perspective, in the 18 months that precede wireless LNP deployment in North America, carriers will invoke resources on the same scale as those that were required to prepare for Y2K conversion.

 Local number portability - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Local number portability (LNP) is the ability to take an existing fixed-line telephone number assigned by a local exchange carrier (LEC) and reassign it to another LEC, while referring to the same physical connection.
In the US, LNP was mandated by the FCC in 1997 with the First Report and Order on LNP and Number Pooling.
As of late November 2003, LNP was required of all landline and wireless common carriers, so long as the number is being ported to the same geographical area or telephone exchange.

 LNP Juggling Act
Wireless LNP already is under way in Great Britain, and in Canada, PCS carrier Microcell Telecommunications is pushing regulators to mandate LNP based on a survey showing that 40% of wireless subscribers were likely to switch carriers if they could keep their numbers.
LNP adds more elements to the network, so there are more things that potentially could go wrong.
LNP is probably a more attractive way for adding services into the network (than E-911) because it introduces the IN infrastructure, the full SS7 (network) and the network elements to be able to handle all the services."

Under the LNP rules, scheduled to take effect this November, wireless carriers must make changes to their networks to permit consumers to keep their phone numbers when they change carriers.
He also references CTIA’s pending Court of Appeals challenge arguing that Congress did not extend the LNP mandate to wireless carriers, and that absent such Congressional authority, the FCC lacks the statutory basis to impose LNP on wireless carriers.
Currently, wireline phone companies are required to provide LNP only within the same "rate center." Wireless carriers typically cover several rate centers, but the FCC has never resolved whether wireline carriers can restrict a customer's ability to port his telephone numbers to a wireless carrier whose service area covers the wireline carrier’s rate center.

LNP would open the door for competition within the local telephone service market place, something not technically feasible prior to this.
It defined the LNP architecture to be used, the functions of the Service Management System and the management and integration functions of the Number Portability Administration Center (NPAC).
In August 1997, eight regional LNP databases were established coinciding with the seven original Bell Operating Company (BOC) regions, and Canada making the eighth.

 Wireless LNP Report
Although the FCC did not propose to adopt the industry standard as a mandatory rule, it found no evidence that the standard was technically infeasible, and stated that it would reexamine the issue if it received numerous consumer complaints about the length of the wireless porting process.
The letter stated that the carriers do not have the data we requested in the form we requested it, and that efforts to compile this information, to the extent that it exists, would be arduous and time-consuming.
During that meeting, the industry representatives reiterated and elaborated on many of the points in their December 10 letter, explaining in greater detail how the porting process works and what some of the early difficulties in the process were.

When wireless E911 is brought up these days, it seems LNP comes up in nearly every conversation, especially when wireless carriers are doing the talking.
BACK TO LNP CTIA has worked feverishly to set aside or legally delay the upcoming Nov. 24 deadline to impose LNP in the 100 biggest wireless markets, as well as staying in the vanguard of E911 efforts.
The fight over LNP won't affect progress on E911, say some analysts, but it could strain already complicated relationships between carriers, lawmakers and public safety officials, as Schumer's attack illustrates.

 Wireless LNP: The time to act is now
The challenge: How to implement LNP Implementing LNP requires carriers to retool their network architecture, rethink the role of the intelligent network, and dismantle proprietary gateways and restrictions on network ingress and egress.
Engineering LNP in the network When determining how to engineer a network for LNP, it's important to remember that SS7 traffic and database activity are not directly proportional to the number of subscribers who have ported.
Because the FCC will allow carriers to recover only direct costs of LNP implementation over a period of five years, carriers that have not deployed their own LNP solutions must continue to lease the service after the cost recovery period has expired or deploy LNP capability at a later date.

A second important factor for me was the evidence demonstrating the significant uncertainties that still attend LNP implementation.
That said, I want to reiterate what I said when we voted on intermodal LNP - I think it is important for the parties to continue to explore whether  reasonable and economically justifiable solutions can be found for LNP implementation at least in some of the more viable rural service areas.
