Abstract: A method and system for performing packet switched handover in a mobile communication network. The system includes a mobile node, a first and a second packet switching node. The method enables the parallel sending of logical link layer frames from the first and the second packet switching node. This is achieved so that the mobile node does not reject incoming frames received from two logical link layer entities having different states. The benefits of the invention are related to improved quality of service and the avoiding of gaps in received data during handover.

Abstract: A mechanism for performing routing in a communication system including a radio access network and a plurality of core networks connected to the radio access network. In order to accomplish a mechanism whereby the routing of a registration request to a serving core network, and also the rejection of a registration request, can be carried out in a controlled manner, a core network is first selected for a registration request received. The registration request is then forwarded to the selected core network and, in response to at least one predetermined criterion being fulfilled, the selected core network is notified that the registration request is to be served by that core network, i.e. that the registration request cannot be rerouted to another core network.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method, network element and terminal device for providing access to a core network via at least a first (20) and a second (30) access network, wherein a connection parameter requested by a terminal device (10) during a connection set up is detected at a network element (40) of the core network and compared with a corresponding capability of the network element (40). Then, information for indicating a change to another one of the first and the second access networks is transmitted from the network element (40) towards the first access network (20), if the corresponding capability does not match with the requested connection parameter. Thereby, a seamless change of the access networks can be provided without refusing the connection set up or downgrading the requested connection parameter.
