is the user-plane node connecting the EPC to the LTE RAN. The
S-GW acts as a mobility anchor when terminals move between
eNodeBs as well as a mobility anchor for other 3GPP
technologies (GSM/GPRS and HSPA). Collection of information
and statistics necessary for charging is also handled by the S-GW.
It should be noted that the nodes discussed above are logical nodes. In an
actual physical implementation, several of them may very well be
combined. For example, the MME, P-GW, and S-GW could very well be
combined into a single physical node
