A method for controlling a UE situated in both a coverage area of a first base station and a coverage area of a second base station involves detecting that the UE is ping-ponging between being served by the first base station and being served by the second base station and determining that the second base station is a relay base station. Further, the method involves, responsive to detecting the ping-ponging and determining that the second base station is a relay base station, (a) determining a carrier on which the first base station provides service and on which the second base station does not provide service, and (b) based on the first base station providing service on the determined carrier and the second base station not providing service on the determined carrier, causing the UE to be served by the first base station on the determined carrier.

Examples described herein relate to managing reselection for a wireless communication device having a first subscription associated with a first Radio Access Technology (RAT) and a second subscription associated with a second RAT, including determining an occurrence of a barring procedure that bars a target cell or a target frequency for the first subscription for a barring duration and deprioritizing the target cell or the target frequency for the barring duration on the second subscription

Methods and apparatus, including computer program products, are provided for signaling. In some example embodiments, there is provided a method. The method may include making mobility information including visited cell history available based on at least received mobility state estimation configuration information; and reporting, by the user equipment, the mobility information including the visited cell history. Related systems, methods, and articles of manufacture are also disclosed.

Methods for D2D connection re-establishment and related user equipments and radio access node are disclosed, wherein the D2D connection is established between a first user equipment and a second user equipment under the control of a radio access node. In one embodiment, the method comprises: receiving, by the first user equipments, a first message from the second user equipments, the first message comprising a first credential which is calculated by the second user equipment; verifying the first credential by the first user equipment; and sending a second message indicating acknowledgement of the D2D connection re-establishment from the first user equipment to the second user equipment upon successful verification of the first credential.

A management device is connected with a plurality of relay devices, and the relay devices store data collected by a device. The management device registers, when a connection notification is received from one of the relay devices, relay device identification information, which identifies the relay device, of the relay device serving as the request destination when the data is acquired, sends a data acquisition request to the specified relay device, and sends, to one of the relay devices, relay device identification information of the target relay device targeted for deletion. The plurality of the relay devices associates, when the identification information targeted for the deletion is received, inquiry destination information specifying the target relay device with the data, and performs, when the data acquisition request is received, response control of the data on the basis of the determination of whether the inquiry destination information is associated with the data.

Methods, systems, and devices are described for adjusting at least one channel parameter based on accessed historical channel information associated with mobility patterns of a mobile device. In some examples, a mobile device or a base station may access historical channel information associated with mobility patterns of the mobile device or another mobile device. The mobility patterns may include information relative to a particular time and location of a mobile device, a previously traveled route by a mobile device, etc. Based on the historical channel information associated with the mobility patterns, the mobile device or the base station may adjust a channel parameter to improve communication performance across the particular channel.

A method and a system for supporting mobility of a mobile terminal in a distributed mobile network based on a SDN are disclosed. A method of supporting a fast handover of a mobile terminal in a node-B (eNB) includes the steps of: receiving a handover initiation message from the mobile terminal, the handover initiation message including identification information and signal strength of a target eNB; determining whether or not for a fast handover trigger using the signal strength of the target eNB and movement history of the mobile terminal previously stored; and when it is determined as the fast handover trigger, transmitting a handover request message and a rule for the handover to the target eNB by using the identification information of the target eNB.

Embodiments of this application provide an information processing method and an apparatus. When a terminal device accesses or camps on a first cell served by a second network device, the terminal device records and stores first information of the terminal device in the first cell, where the first information may include connection failure report information of a radio link failure (RLF) or a handover failure, and/or measurement information obtained by performing measurement by using a minimization of drive tests (MDT) technology. After accessing a second cell, the terminal device may send, through the second cell, the first information to a first network device to which the second cell belongs, and a RAT corresponding to the second cell is different from a RAT corresponding to the first cell.

Determining to initiate a user equipment handover event based on a signal-to-interference-plus-noise ratio value is disclosed. The disclosed subject matter can employ the signal-to-interference-plus-noise ratio value in lieu of a reference signal receive power value. In an aspect, a handover based on the signal-to-interference-plus-noise ratio value can generally be determined faster and with greater reliability than basing the handover on the reference signal receive power value. In an aspect, some embodiments can substitute a determined uplink signal-to-interference-plus-noise ratio value for a downlink signal-to-interference-plus-noise ratio value. In some embodiments, a predicted signal-to-interference-plus-noise ratio value can be determined based on historical channel characteristics, hysterical wireless network environment features, or other historical data. A predicted signal-to-interference-plus-noise ratio value can be validated to a determined current signal-to-interference-plus-noise ratio value, permitting a validated predicted value to be employed until a next validation event.

A mobile device for enhanced mobile device wireless network connectivity is provided that includes a user interface, a hardware processor, and a non-transitory memory configured to store one or more programs. The hardware processor executes the one or more programs to store a map of wireless networks, calculate a route of travel for the mobile device, and determine a list of wireless networks connectable to the mobile device. A schedule is created for connecting the mobile device to the wireless networks on the list and connecting the mobile device to a first one of the wireless networks on the schedule along the route. The mobile device switches sequentially from the first one of the wireless networks to a next one of the wireless networks in the schedule so the mobile device is connected to at least one of the wireless networks on the schedule while moving along the route.
