Abstract: Various services for a mobile communication network or an IP network are implemented by processing necessary information suitably in accordance with a service type so as to exchange the information to a service control device and transmitting the results of the service process by the service control device to the mobile communication network or the IP network, for a service request from the mobile communication network or the IP network. A gateway device of the present invention retains a signal defining various rules or policies received from the service control device, judges a service type and a destination requested from the service request signal by the various rules or policies for the service request signal transmitted from a communication terminal of the mobile communication network or the communication terminal of the IP network, performs protocol conversion on the service request signal in accordance with the service type, and transmits the service request signal to the corresponding destination.

Abstract: The present invention provides various services for a mobile communication network (100) or an IP network (200), by processing necessary information suitably in accordance with a service type so as to exchange the information to a service control device (20) and transmitting the results of the service process by the service control device (20) to the mobile communication network (100) or the IP network (200), for a service request from the mobile communication network (100) or the IP network (200).

Abstract: A mobile communications service control apparatus comprises signal processing means for conducting prescribed signal processing of a packet transmitted from a mobile terminal or preset communications-equipment, information restoring means for restoring information of a layer higher than a transmitted layer of the signal-processed packet, and service providing means for providing a service in accordance with the contents of the restored information.
