COMMUNICATIONS TERMINAL AND METHOD OF COMMUNICATING

摘要

A communications terminal communicates data to/from a mobile communications network. The mobile communications network includes a radio network including one or more base stations configured to provide a low bandwidth communications interface formed from a low bandwidth carrier for communicating the data to or receiving the data from the communications terminal in accordance with a relatively low bandwidth, and to provide a high bandwidth communications interface formed from a high bandwidth carrier for communicating the data to or receiving the data from the communications terminal in accordance with a relatively high bandwidth. The communications terminal is configured to attach for communication to the high bandwidth interface, and in response to receiving a command from the mobile communications network, to detach from the high bandwidth interface and to re-attach to the low bandwidth interface for communicating the data to or from the mobile communications network via the low bandwidth interface.
