The system information may include one or more network signaling flags indicative of a legacy regulation and an updated regulation (or a legacy version of a regulation and an updated version of the regulation) for operating on a frequency band. The user equipment transmits an indication to the base station as to whether it supports the legacy regulation and/or the updated regulation. The base station configures uplink and/or downlink resources on the frequency band for the user equipment based on the regulation indicated. The user equipment and the base station then communicate using the configured resources on the frequency band.

Abstract: Methods and systems for ensuring continuity of services on handover from Wi-Fi to cellular networks are disclosed. Embodiments of the disclosure allow a UE to seamlessly engage in a call during a handover, which is triggered on detecting that QoS of the call is less than a threshold within a coverage area of the Wi-Fi. The continuity of the call is ensured by triggering a handover from Wi-Fi to LTE and preventing/reducing handover from Wi-Fi to NR. The UE avails calling services using LTE and data services using NR, by enabling NSA mode. The UE is allowed to avail calling services seamlessly by initiating a handover of the calling services from Wi-Fi to LTE and avail data services seamlessly by initiating a handover of the data services from Wi-Fi to NR. The handover from Wi-Fi to LTE/NR is initiated if QoS of the calling/data services is less than a threshold in Wi-Fi coverage area.
