Title:
MOBILE COMMUNICATION SYSTEM
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2018/061986
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
A mobile communication system 8 comprises: a radio access network (RAN) 3; and a core network including a session management function (SM) 2 for managing a session of a mobile communication terminal (UE) 4 and a mobility management function (MM) 1 for managing mobility of the UE 4, wherein the SM 2 is provided with a communication path establishment unit 22 which establishes a communication path through which communication is possible between the SM 2 and a node of the RAN 3 without using the MM1. The communication path establishment unit 22 may establish a communication path when a session construction request upon attachment of the UE 4 is received from the MM1. Furthermore, on the basis of identification information of the node of the RAN 3 included in the construction request, the communication path establishment unit 22 may establish a communication path between the SM 2 and the node of the RAN 3 indicated by the identification information.
