TECHNIQUES FOR ASSISTING RADIO ACCESS TECHNOLOGY (RAT) COMMUNICATIONS USING ANOTHER RAT

摘要

Systems and methods for communicating in a wireless network using a first radio access technology (RAT) and an assisting RAT are disclosed. A first connection can be established with an access point using the first RAT, and a second connection can be established with the access point using the assisting RAT. A timing of the first connection can be synchronized based at least in part on a timeline of the assisting RAT. Communications with the access point over at least the first connection can be based at least in part on the synchronized timing.
