METHOD FOR TRANSMITTING INFORMATION AND SIGNALLING DATA IN A COMMUNICATION SYSTEM WITH OPTIMIZED DISTRIBUTION OF CONTROL DATA AND AN INFORMATION DATA LEVEL FOR HOSTS

摘要

The invention relates to a method for transmitting information data and signalling data between a first network element (H1) and a second network element (H2) communicating with each other via at least one access network (AN) and a core network (CN) of a communication system. The signalling link and the information link lead via an access network element (GW) between the access network (AN) and the core network (CN). Logical separation is carried out between the signalling link on a control level (CP1) for the transmission of signalling data and the information link on an information data plane (OP1) for the transmission of information data as useful data. In order to optimize the functions and the structure of the control data and information data plane for hosts, a functionality shutting off the control plane (CP1) and/or the information data plane (1P1) vis à vis at least one of the network elements (H2; MA, CNd; DS, H2) is provided in the access network element. As a result, standard mobile radio stations can also be used in a network with future mobile IP control.
