  • User equipment signaling traffic reduction
    Patent number: 9072038
    Abstract: A method in one example comprises receiving a measurement report for a handover at a source evolved Node B (eNodeB) of a Long Term Evolution (LTE) communication network. The measurement report is received from a user equipment (UE) served by the source eNodeB. A determination is made whether the UE is dormant. A determination is made whether a current load level for the handover is over a threshold. The measurement report is discarded if the current load level is over the threshold and the UE is dormant. The handover is triggered based on the measurement report if the current load level is not over the threshold or the UE is not dormant.
