APPARATUS AND METHOD TO EXPEDITE AN INTER RADIO ACCESS TECHNOLOGY RESELECTION

摘要

Various aspects directed towards expediting an inter-RAT (radio access technology) reselection are disclosed. A user equipment (UE) operates according to a first RAT and utilizes an evolved multimedia broadcast multicast service (eMBMS) via the first RAT. A second RAT, which is unable to support eMBMS, is selected such that operation of the UE transitions from the first RAT to the second RAT. A reselection of the first RAT is then expedited by modifying at least one of a dormancy timer value initialization, a reselection timer value initialization, or a frequency priority.
