RADIO RESOURCE CONNECTION (RRC) ESTABLISHMENT FOR WIRELESS SYSTEMS

摘要

To provide methods and systems for user equipment (UE) performing a handoff from a source extended Node-B (e-NB) to a target e-NB.SOLUTION: The method includes detecting a radio link failure (RLF) between the UE and the source e-NB by the UE, and maintaining an active communication service at a service layer of the UE after detecting the RLF and as the UE performs the handoff from the source e-NB to the target e-NB such that the communication service remains continuously active during the handoff, where the communication service supports a first communication between the UE and a third party.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 7
