Connected-state radio session transfer in wireless communication systems

Abstract From the Canadian patent

Embodiments described herein relate to connected-state radio session transfer in wireless communications. A source access network controller may lock a source radio session associated with an access terminal (e.g. in response to detecting a handoff condition associated with the access terminal) where the , source access network controller may be in communication with a data network. The source access network controller may also instruct a target access network controller to create a target radio session corresponding with the source radio session, and to establish a communication route between the data network and the access network via the target ANC. The source access network …
