发明名称 SELECTIVELY ACQUIRING AND ADVERTISING A CONNECTION BETWEEN A USER EQUIPMENT AND A WIRELESS LOCAL AREA NETWORK
摘要 In an embodiment, a UE transmits information regarding its local environment to a WWAN-based application server. The application server generates a list of WLAN APs that are in a vicinity of the UE based on the local environment information. The application server sends, to the UE, WLAN AP selection assistance information (SAI) that includes at least the list of WLAN APs and (ii) navigation information by which the UE can navigate to the listed WLAN APs. The UE receives the SAI and provides a user of the UE with directions to a selected WLAN AP based on the SAI. In another embodiment, a communication entity advertises a UEs connection to a WLAN AP along with information related to an estimated duration of the UEs connection. Another communication entity receives the connection advertisement and determines whether to transmit data to the UE based on the advertisement.
