Abstract
The present invention discloses an apparatus and method for establishing a bearer for transmission of user data. An apparatus for establishing a bearer for transmission of user data, which is located between a base station and a core network according to an aspect of the present invention, determines whether a terminal generating the call is a corporate terminal upon receiving a call origination signal message from the base station And transmitting the bearer setup information according to the determination result to the base station and the core network; And if the terminal generating the call by the terminal determination unit determines that the terminal is a corporate terminal, using the bearer setup information for the base station and the bearer setup information for the core network received from the terminal determination unit, And a bearer setting unit for setting a bearer between the base station and the core network.
Description
The present invention relates to an apparatus and method for setting bearer for transmission of user data, and more particularly, to a method and apparatus for setting bearer for transmission of user data by judging a type of terminal (a corporation terminal or a general terminal) To an apparatus and method for setting up a bearer for transmission of user data for setting up a bearer to transmit user data.
The LIPA (Loacl IP Access) technology allows access to an enterprise network using a base station (HeNB) and an evolved packet core (EPC), which is already defined in the 3GPP. According to the related art, a Loacl Enterprise Gateway (LEG) is provided between the base station (HeNB) and the core network (EPC) by applying the LIPA technique to perform a local breakout (Loack Breakout). The corporation terminal (terminal that can be connected to the corporation network) performs local breakout through the local enterprise gateway (LEG). At this time, the local enterprise gateway (LEG) can smoothly transmit / receive user data (packet) of the corporation terminal to the corporation network by applying a technique such as NAT.
At this time, the local enterprise gateway (LEG) establishes an S1 bearer between the base station and the core network, and transmits / receives user data (packet) of the terminal through the S1 bearer. According to the related art, the local enterprise gateway (LEG) locally breaks out the user data (packet) of the terminal according to the type of terminal (corporation terminal or general terminal). The corporate terminal means a terminal connectable to a corporation network, and the general terminal means a terminal connectable to a core network (EPC). That is, the local enterprise gateway (LEG) checks the User IP address in the user data (packet) of the received terminal and locally breaks out the user data (packet) of the terminal according to the result. For example, when the S1 bearer is set up, the LAG transmits user data (packet) to the corporate network when the User IP address is a corporate terminal, (Packet) to the core network (EPC).
As described above, according to the above-described conventional technology, the S1 bearer is unconditionally generated between the base station-local enterprise gateway (LEG) -core network (EPC) regardless of whether it is a corporation terminal or a general terminal, After the user data (packet) is transmitted to the gateway (LEG), the local enterprise gateway (LEG) judges whether it is a corporate terminal or a general terminal and transmits the user data to the corresponding network (corporation network or core network). Therefore, the local enterprise gateway (LEG) is also connected between the base station-local enterprise gateway (LEG) and the core network (EPC) to relay the user data (packet) of the terminal not connected to the corporation network S1 bearer is generated and user data (packet) is processed. Therefore, an increase in cost due to the setting of unnecessary S1 bearer (setting of maximum capacity and maximum bandwidth) and the performance of local corporate gateway (LEG) do.
