Claim
1. Apparatus for enabling one of a wireless local area network (WLAN) and a wireless wide area network (WWAN) to access an internet protocol multimedia subsystem (IMS), comprising: a packet data gateway (PDG) coupled between said IMS and one of said WLAN and WWAN for providing IMS services to subscribers operating in said one of said WLAN and said WWAN systems.
2. The apparatus of claim 1 wherein said IMS is a subsystem of a call state control function (CSCF) and said PDG is coupled to said CSCF.
3. The apparatus of claim 1 wherein IMS includes means for routing session initiation protocol (SIP) messages.
4. The apparatus of claim 1 further comprising: a packet data network (PDN); and said PDG having means for communicating packet data between said PDN and one of said WLAN and WWAN.
5. The apparatus of claim 1 further comprising: at least one wireless transmitter receiver unit (WTRU); and said one of said WLAN and WWAN comprising an access network for sending/receiving SIP messages to/from said WTRU.
6. The apparatus of claim 5 further comprising: said PDG being part of a first cellular network (FCNW); and a second packet gateway (SPDG) in a second cellular network (SCNW); a border gateway (BGW) in said FCNW selectively coupling packet data (PD) from PDGs in said FCNW and SCNW to said access network.
7. The apparatus of claim 1 further comprising: a media gateway (MGW); and said PDG having means for coupling media services from said MGW to one of said WLAN and WWAN.
8. The apparatus of claim 2 further comprising: a gateway general packet radio service support node (GGSN) coupling said CSCF to a cellular network for providing messages between said cellular network and one of said WLAN and WWAN.
9. A method employing a packet data gateway (PDG) for use in providing services to wireless transmit/receive units (WTRUs) communicating with a wireless local area network (WLAN) interworked with a cellular network having an internet protocol multimedia subsystem forming part of a call state control function (CSCF), comprising: said PDG routing packet data between a packet data network and a WTRU through said WLAN
10. A method employing a packet data gateway (PDG) for use in providing services to wireless transmit/receive units (WTRUs) communicating with a wireless local area network (WLAN) interworked with a cellular network having an internet protocol multimedia subsystem (IMS) forming part of a call state control function (CSCF), comprising: said cellular network generating a short message, transfer protocol data unit (TPDU); and said PDG: receiving the short message TPDU; checking the short message TPDU for errors; and encapsulating and sending the short message TPDU to a targeted one of said WTRUs
11. The method of claim 10 further comprising said PDG: receiving a delivery from said WTRU; and sending confirmation to the cellular network that the short message TPDU was delivered to said targeted WTRU

13. The method of claim 10 wherein the short message is formatted in internet protocol (IP)
14. A method for accessing an internet protocol multimedia subsystem (IMS) over wireless local area networks (WLANs) and/or wireless wide area networks (WWANs) and compatible with standard 3GPP TS 23.234, comprising: providing a packet data gateway (PDG) between said IMS and one of said WLANs/WWANs to enable 3GPP based IMS access over said one of said WLANs/WWANs
15. The method of claim 14 wherein said IMS comprises a call state control function (CSCF), said method further comprising: providing a first packet data interface between said CSCF and said PDG; and providing a second packet data interface between said one of said WLANs/WWANs and said PDG
16. The method of claim 14 wherein said IMS comprises a call state control function (CSCF), said method further comprising: providing a first Wi interface between said CSCF and said PDG; and providing a second Wi interface between said one of said WLANs/WWANs and said PDG
17. The method of claim 15 wherein a media gateway (MGW) is provided, said method further comprising providing a third packet data interface between said MGW and said PDG
18. The method of claim 16 wherein a media gateway (MGW) is provided, said method further comprising providing a third Wi interface between said MGW and said PDG
19. The method of claim 14 wherein said PDG provides routing information for WLAN/WWAN-3GPP connected users.
20. The method of claim 14 wherein said PDG routes packet data received from and sent to a packet data network (PDN).
21. The method of claim 14 wherein said PDG performs address translation and mapping.
22. The method of claim 14 wherein said PDG performs encapsulation.
23. The method of claim 14 wherein said PDG generates charging information related to data traffic of a user equipment (UE) communicating with said one of said WLANs/WWANs.
24. The method of claim 14 wherein said PDG: receives a short message transfer protocol data unit (TPDU); and encapsulates and sends the short message to a targeted user equipment (UE).']
