  • Patent number: 8787318
    Abstract: A system and method is provided for managing an access network re-selection. The system includes computing hardware configured to provide a first indication indicating a target access network to be re-selected in case of a handover event and a second indication for establishing a certain context on a target access network. Further, computing hardware may be configured to establish the certain context on the target access network dependent on the provided second indication, said established context including a first part of the access network re-selection. And computing hardware may be configured to execute a second part of the access network re-selection due to the provided first indication and a received trigger for the handover event.

  • Publication number: 20130064221
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a system for managing an access network re-selection. The system comprises providing means, establishing means and executing means. Said providing means may be configured to provide a first indication indicating a target access network to be re-selected in case of a handover event and a second indication for establishing a certain context on the target access network. Further, said establishing means may be configured to establish the certain context on the target access network dependent on the provided second indication, said established context including a first part of the access network re-selection. Said executing means may be configured to execute a second part of the access network re-selection due to the provided first indication and the received handover trigger triggering said handover event.
