ABSTRACT:
A roaming service covering a plurality of telecommunications carriers in mobile data communication is provided. In a communication system including a wireless terminal, two or more terminal-side networks communicating with the wireless terminal, and a backbone-side network connected to the terminal-side networks and connecting the wireless terminal with a backbone network, the wireless terminal traveling between the terminal-side networks during communication, wherein each of the terminal-side networks has a relay device for relaying communication between the wireless terminal and the backbone-side network and wherein the backbone-side network has a position management device for managing positional information of the wireless terminal and an authentication device for authenticating the wireless terminal according to contract information of the wireless terminal.
