Abstract
The disclosure is related to a method for distributing data traffic of a wireless local area network (WLAN) in a WLAN access network while providing service continuity and internet protocol (IP) mobility in a heterogeneous network environment. The method may include receiving data traffic generated by user equipment and from a wireless local area network, selecting one of a first data path and a second data path for the received data traffic based on path decision information associated with the received data traffic, and transmitting the data traffic to Internet through the selected data path. The first data path may transmit the data traffic to Internet through a packet data network (PDN) gateway and the second data path may transmit the data traffic to Internet without passing through the PDN gateway.
