Abstract
A method for creating a Multipoint-to-Point EPS bearer in a packet switched transmission network is envisaged. A plurality of user equipments are installed within a tracking area assigned to a serving gateway. The user equipments are communicably coupled to an eNodeB, which is configured to receive the uplink data packets transmitted from the user Equipments. The eNodeB is communicably coupled to an S1 bearer, and with the S1 bearer designated as the destination for every uplink data packet transmitted from the eNodeB, the need for packet inspection at the eNodeB is eliminated. Likewise, since the S1 bearer is the only possible intermediate destination for the downlink data packets originating from the serving gateway, the process of packet inspection is also absolved at the serving gateway. The Multipoint-to-Point EPS bearer is communicably coupled to the user equipments for transmission of both uplink data packets and downlink data packets without packet inspection.
