A method performed by a system which manages station transition from a Wi-Fi access point includes sending, based on the station roaming to an edge-of-domain access point, a request to neighboring access points to the edge-of-domain access point for neighbor reports. The method includes receiving a cellular signal value from the station, comparing a first signal grade associated with the edge-of-domain access point to a second signal grade associated with the cellular signal value to yield a comparison and generating a link usability rating associated with a link between the station and the edge-of-domain access point. Based at least in part on the comparison and the link usability rating, the method includes transmitting a message to the station suggesting that the station roam from the edge-of-domain access point to a cellular network. An edge of the domain can also be dynamic and vary based on station characteristics.

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) may establish a first connection with a source base station. The UE may determine that a handover procedure is being performed for establishing a second connection with a target base station. The UE may monitor, during a monitoring period instantiated at a physical layer of a protocol stack of the UE, for a control signal acknowledging success of the handover procedure from a target base station. The UE may transmit, based at least in part on a result of the monitoring during the monitoring period, a physical layer signal or a medium access control layer signal to the source base station indicating that the handover procedure was unsuccessful based at least in part on a failure to successfully receive and decode the control signal.

A source access node that is configured to hand over a wireless User Equipment (UE) to a target access node. A radio wirelessly receives a measurement report from the UE that characterizes signal strength for the target access node, the signal strength for the source access node, and UE capabilities for the UE. Baseband circuitry determines to hand over the UE to the target access node based on the measurement report. The baseband circuitry receives UE load information from the target access node that indicates UE loads for the frequency bands of the target access node. The baseband circuitry determines UE capabilities for the overloaded frequency bands. The baseband circuitry transfers handover instructions to the UE that direct the UE to remove UE capabilities for the overloaded frequency bands. The UE updates the UE capabilities list and hands over to a non-overloaded frequency band of the target access node.

A highly reliable communication system is provided, for example. A communication system includes a communication terminal device, and a plurality of base stations configured to perform radio communication with the communication terminal device. The plurality of base stations include a master base station and a secondary base station configuring dual connectivity with respect to the communication terminal device. When failure occurs in a secondary cell group (SCG) used for communication between the communication terminal device and the secondary base station, the master base station acquires latest SCG configuration.

A wireless device (10) is configured to receive a control message (28) from a source radio network node (14S) of a handover. The control message (28) indicates a sidelink configuration (26) that is usable during and/or after the handover. Alternatively or additionally, the control message (28) indicates a sidelink configuration (26) that is supported by a target radio network node (14T) of the handover. The sidelink configuration (26) is a configuration of a sidelink (16) for the wireless device (10).

According to an example embodiment, a method may include receiving, by a user equipment from a serving base station associated with a source cell, a reconfiguration message that includes a target cell configuration for a target cell, a configuration of a conditional handover execution condition, and information that indicates that the user equipment should immediately decode and apply the target cell configuration upon receiving the reconfiguration message; and immediately decoding and applying, by the user equipment, the target cell configuration upon receiving the reconfiguration message, without waiting for the conditional handover execution condition to be fulfilled.
