SYSTEM AND SIGNALING METHOD FOR INTERWORKING WIRELESS LAN AND PORTABLE INTERNET
First Claim
1. A method for interworking with a first network to support signaling to a terminal of a second network, the method comprising:
- Setting, with the first network, a first wireless data path following a first wireless communication protocol;
setting a first radio link following a second wireless communication protocol with the terminal;
receiving an authentication message through the first radio link;
transmitting the authentication message to an authentication server of the second network through the first wireless data path so that the authentication server of the second network may authenticate the terminal; and
setting a second wireless data path following the second wireless communication protocol with the terminal when the authentication process performed by the authentication server of the second network is finished.

Abstract
Disclosed is an interworking device for interworking with the first network and supporting signaling for a terminal of a second network. The interworking device sets a first wireless data path with the first network. The interworking device sets a first radio link with the terminal, receives an authentication message through a first radio link, and transmits the authentication message to an authentication server of the second network through the first wireless data path. When the authentication server finishes authentication, the interworking device sets a second wireless data path with the terminal. Accordingly, the interworking device provides an Internet service to the terminal during movement.
