Determining the availability of a radio access technology |
| 摘要 |
In systems and methods of determining the availability of a radio access technology, a first message is received from a wireless device in communication with an access node using a first radio access technology, wherein the first message comprises a request of the availability of a second radio access technology at the access node. Based on the first message, an identifier of the wireless device and an identifier of the first access node are determined. Based on the access node identifier, it is identified whether the second radio access technology is available at the access node, and a second message is sent to the wireless device instructing the wireless device to scan for the second radio access technology when it is available. |
