SELECTING A RADIO NODE FOR DATA TRAFFIC OFFLOADING |
| 摘要 |
A technology that is operable to select a radio node on a communications network is disclosed. In one embodiment, a user equipment (UE) is configured with circuitry configured to determine when to offload data traffic of the UE to a wireless local area network (WLAN) access point (AP) in a multi-radio access technology (RAT) communications network based on radio access network (RAN) assistance information communicated via the operations, administration and maintenance (OAM) system. A status is identified of one or more WLAN APs in the multi-RAT communications network using the RAN assistance information. A radio node is selected in the cell of the multi-RAT communications network for communication based on selected criteria. |

1. A user equipment (UE) operable to select a radio node in a cell of a multiple radio access technology (multi-RAT) communications network, the UE having circuitry configured to:
determine when to offload data traffic of the UE to a wireless local area network (WLAN) access point (AP) in the multi-RAT communications network based on radio access network (RAN) assistance information communicated via the operations, administration and maintenance (OAM) system; identify a status of one or more WLAN APs in the multi-RAT communications network using the RAN assistance information; and select a radio node in the cell of the multi-RAT communications network for communication based on select criteria. |
