Service handover control apparatus using an end-to-end service handover and method using the apparatus
First Claim
1. A service handover control apparatus comprising:
- a service handover management unit configured to;
collect information associated with a transmitting terminal or a receiving terminal which operate based on an Internet Protocol multimedia subsystem (IMS), and output a control signal that controls service handovers of the transmitting terminal and the receiving terminal based on the collected information; and
a service handover controller configured to provide the service handover management unit with the information associated with the transmitting terminal or the receiving terminal, and control the service handovers of the transmitting terminal and the receiving terminal based on the control signal, wherein the information associated with the transmitting terminal comprises a parameter that corresponds to call connection information, the call connection information being collected from a call invite message transmitted by the transmitting terminal, and a parameter that corresponds to at least one of a wireless access network that is accessible from the transmitting terminal, and a user profile of the transmitting terminal, and the information associated with the receiving terminal comprises a parameter that corresponds to at least one of a wireless access network that is accessible from the receiving terminal, and a user profile of the receiving terminal.
