<p>Apparatus and methods enable an efficient, low-latency handoff of a communication session, which may be especially effective in a high data rate network. The apparatus and methods provide for a source transceiver module to complete a transmission in-progress while at the same time informing a target transmission module of an end point of the transmission such that data in a shadow buffer of an anchor network function module can be sent to the target transceiver function prior to implementation of the handoff. As such, the apparatus and methods allow for an extremely quick handoff that minimizes use of a backhaul network.</p> |
