Synthetic Transaction for Wireless Handover

摘要

Techniques for synthetic transaction for wireless handover are described. According to various embodiments, a synthetic transaction is utilized to determine a signal quality of a wireless network. Based on the signal quality, a decision is made whether to perform a handover of a communication session to a wireless network.

主权项

1. A system comprising:
at least one processor; and one or more computer-readable storage media including instructions stored thereon that, responsive to execution by the at least one processor, cause the system perform operations including:
determining while a communication session is in progress over a first wireless network that a second wireless network is available;initiating a synthetic transaction over the second wireless network while maintaining a connection to the first wireless network;ascertaining based on a signal quality detected for the synthetic transaction that the second wireless network complies with a signal quality threshold for allowing a handover of the communication session to the second wireless network; andcausing the handover of the communication session to the second wireless network to be performed.
