Abstract

A proximity control method for transmitting a content and a network node using the proximity control method is provided. A proximity control method for transmitting a content performs a different proximity control mechanism depending on each of a single proximity control (SPC) domain, a mixed proximity control (MPC) domain, and a network-based service domain, and each of nodes performs the different proximity control mechanism based on a physical distance from a neighboring node, the nodes being comprised in the SPC domain, the MPC domain, and the network-based service domain.
