Common subscriber managing apparatus and method based on fuctional modeling of a common subscriber server for use in an ALL-IP network
First Claim
1. A common subscriber managing apparatus for use in an Internet Protocol network in which a circuit network for voice and a packet network for data are integrated, the apparatus comprising:
- first portable user terminating means and satisfying media voice or data standard supported in the network;
wireless interfacing means for controlling wireless resources of said user terminating means and wireless traffic, controlling handoff, realigning data from and to the packet network based on a request of said user terminating means to have interfacing condition, providing the realigned data to said user terminating means, and transferring the media to a second user terminating means;
call controlling means for controlling a call between the wireless interfacing means and common subscriber managing means; and
common subscriber managing means for providing Security Association setup function for voice processing and commonly managing mobility management, Quality of Service, authentication and authorization management, accounting management and service management functions for said first user terminating means by using a common subscriber database.
