Apparatus for supporting a mobile station to communicate with two or more networks in a mobile communication system and method thereof

Abstract

An apparatus for supporting a mobile station (MS) to perform a communication using a plurality of networks in a mobile communication system and method thereof are disclosed. According to the present invention, a serving base station (BS) of the MS receives information on at least one heterogeneous network from a BS of each of the at least one heterogeneous network. The serving BS of the MS selects at least one of a heterogeneous network to be allocated to the MS and a channel of the heterogeneous network based on the received information on the at least one heterogeneous network. And, the serving BS of the MS transmits an information on the selected heterogeneous network to the MS.
