Abstract (en)

[origin: KR20160027937A] The present invention relates to an apparatus and a method for controlling transmission control protocol (TCP) connection in a wireless communication system. According to embodiments of the present invention, provided are an apparatus and a method for controlling the termination of TCP connection to improve the battery life of a client device such as a smartphone terminal in a wireless communication system. According to an embodiment of the present invention, a method for operating a client in a wireless communication system comprises the following processes of: determining a data transfer inactivation time for at least one TCP connection among a plurality of TCP connections; and terminating the TCP connection at the data transfer inactivation time.
