Abstract
An intelligent multiple access communication (MAC) control apparatus and method are disclosed. The intelligent MAC control apparatus includes a connection control unit, a resource management unit, a session control unit, a flow control unit, and a determination unit. The connection control unit connects at least one Radio Access Technology (RAT) and a wireless network. The resource management unit collects RAT information including information about available resources and radio state of the RAT. The session control unit checks the QoS of at least one connection target service. The flow control unit determines the priority of the connection target service, and selects a preferential connection target service. The determination unit determines a connection RAT for performing the preferential connection target service based on the QoS and the RAT information.
