Method and apparatus for transmitting and receiving service in wireless communication system
First Claim
1. A method for sending a service by a first gateway (GW) among multiple GWs in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:
- upon reception of a request for the service from a terminal, determining whether the first GW is able to provide the service;
if the first GW is not able to provide the service, determining a second GW that is able to provide the service requested by the terminal among the multiple GWs, based on GW management information that includes respective service information regarding different services that the multiple GWs are able to provide;
requesting the second GW to provide the service requested by the terminal; and
upon reception of the service from the second GW, forwarding, to the terminal, the service.

Abstract
A method for sending a service by a first gateway (GW) among multiple GWs includes, upon reception of a request for a service from a terminal, determining whether the first GW is able to provide the service, detecting a second GW that is able to provide the service requested by the terminal among the multiple GWs based on GW management information that includes respective service information regarding services that the multiple GWs are able to provide, if the first GW is not able to provide the service, requesting the second GW to provide the service requested by the terminal, and upon reception of the service from the second GW, forwarding the service to the terminal. The other embodiments, including a gateway and a terminal are also disclosed.
