| 摘要 |
An example of this invention provides low latency handovers between Mobile WiMAX and 2G/3G/LTE networks with only a single radio transmitting at any given point in time, by establishing L2 tunnel between 3GPP MME and WiMAX ASN for control plane signaling to perform pre-registration, pre-authentication and context transfer to the target network, while UE maintains its connection to the source network, and by setting up bearer path for packet forwarding between Servicing Gateway and WiMAX ASN. An example of this invention uses a virtual eNB to facilitate low latency L2 handoffs to legacy 2G/3G networks with minimum impact to SGSN and MME.
