Abstract

See full text

A system is disclosed for providing inter-system mobility in integrated LTE and WiFi systems. A control plane interface referred to as the S1a-C interface, is defined between a trusted WLAN access network (TWAN) and a mobility management entity (MME) comprised in an LTE wireless access network. A user plane interface, referred to as the S1a-U interface, is defined between the TWAN and a server gateway (SGW) in the LTE wireless access network. The MME operates as a common control plane entity for both LTE and TWAN access, while the SGW operates as a user plane gateway for both LTE and TWAN. The integrated MME and SGW allow for user equipment (UE) to access the capabilities of a packet data network (PDN) through either the LTE access network or TWAN.
