Abstract
Description
以下、図面を参照して本開示の実施の形態について説明する。図1Aを用いて本開示の実施の形態1にかかる通信システムの構成例について説明する。
続いて、図2Aを用いて本開示の実施の形態2にかかる通信システムの構成例について説明する。図2Aにおいては、3GPPにおいて規定されているノードによって構成された通信システムの構成例について説明する。なお、図2Aでは課金システムは省略しており、図3で後述する。
続いて、図19を用いて本開示の実施の形態3にかかる通信システムの構成例について説明する。図19の通信システムは、図2Bの異RAT通信装置70の替わりに無線LAN通信を行うアクセスポイントWT160を用いている。また、WT160とSGW90との間にインタフェースは設定されず、WT160は、eNB60を介してUE50に関するユーザデータを送信または受信することを前提とする。eNB60とWT160との間は、Xwインタフェースとして規定されている。WT160は、例えば、無線LAN通信における親機や基地局として用いられるAP(Access Point)やWiFiルータであってもよい。
