Abstract
Methods and apparatuses are provided for operating a base station in a wireless communication system. Capability information on an aggregation operation using a first RAT and a second RAT, is received from a terminal. A first message including a SSID of an access node and information on an authentication for the access node, is transmitted to the terminal. A second message for requesting to allocate a resource of the second RAT, is transmitted to the access node. First data is transmitted to the terminal by using on the first RAT and second data is transmitted to the terminal via the access node by using the second RAT, after the terminal performs an association and the authentication with the access node based on the SSID and the information on the authentication. The base station supports the first RAT. The access node supports the second RAT.
