Gatekeeper can perform the following roles:

 - Call Admission Control (Distributed Call processing environment)

 - Centralized Dial Plan (Also support Directory Gatekeeper for
hierarchical support)

 - Provides Dial Plan resolution for H323 network (not required for SIP world)

As you have mentioned, a Gateway is used to terminate voice calls.
Such as Analog <--> Digital conversion
between PSTN and VoIP world.
