METHODS AND SYSTEMS TO SUPPORT MOBILITY BETWEEN WIRELESS LOCAL AREA NETWORK (WLAN) AND WIRELESS WIDE AREA NETWORK (WWAN) DOMAINS

摘要

Methods and systems to facilitate mobility of devices between WWAN and WLAN systems/domains are described herein. A mobile station is registered with a preferred system/domain and a non-preferred system/domain and uses one or more public identities and one or more associated private identities to perform registrations over the preferred and non-preferred systems/domains. One or more of the associated systems/domains are further monitored for a paging signal transmitted over the network. In response to the paging signal, the mobile station transmits a paging response signal over the system/domain that facilitated transmission of the paging signal.
