COOPERATION BETWEEN WIRELESS COMMUNICATION NETWORKS

摘要

Network nodes and methods therein are provided for cooperation between different wireless communications networks, such as between a 3GPP network and a WLAN. Information related to a buffer status of at least one wireless device is provided by a first network node operating in a first wireless communication network, to a second network node operating in a second wireless communication network. The information may be an indication of a buffer status of a UE which the first network node considers steering to the second wireless network. The second network node may reply with an estimate of a possible throughput for the UE, where the estimate is based on the information related to a buffer status.
