Embodiment Construction

[0058] Figure 6 A diagram of a network node 10 is shown according to some embodiments. Network node 10 resides in the core network and uses communication interface circuitry 18 to facilitate communication between the access network and the Internet. Communication interface circuitry 18 includes circuitry for communicating with other nodes in the core network, radio nodes, and / or other types of nodes in the network to provide data and cellular communication services. According to various embodiments, the cellular communication service may operate according to any one or more of 3GPP cellular standards, GSM, GPRS, WCDMA, HSDPA, LTE, and LTE-Advanced.

[0059]Network node 10 also includes one or more processing circuits 12 operatively associated with communication interface circuit 18 . For ease of discussion, the one or more processing circuits 12 will be referred to hereinafter as "processing circuits 12." Processing circuitry 12 includes one or more digital processors 22, ...

Abstract

A node of a RAN of a wide area cellular network initiates aggregation of WLAN traffic and cellular network traffic for a user equipment. The node determines to initiate aggregation of WLAN traffic and cellular network traffic for the user equipment and signals to a node of the WLAN network or the user equipment that aggregation should be initiated for the user equipment. Data is exchanged with the user equipment via a cellular radio link and using an interface between the RAN node and the WLAN node, where the traffic data on the interface is aggregated with the traffic data on the cellular radio link.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates generally to wireless communication networks, and in particular to initiating aggregation between cellular and WLAN networks. Background technique [0002] Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) technology known as "Wi-Fi" has been standardized by IEEE in the 802.11 series of specifications. The IEEE 802.11 specification regulates the functions and operations of Wi-Fi access points (APs) or wireless terminals collectively referred to as "stations" or "STAs" in IEEE802.11, including physical layer protocols, media access control (MAC) layer protocols and other aspects required to ensure compatibility and interoperability between access points and portable terminals. For example, Wi-Fi is often used as a wireless extension of fixed broadband access in domestic environments and so-called hotspots, such as airports, train stations and restaurants. [0003] 3GPP / WLAN Interworking [0004] Most current Wi-Fi / WLAN deployments are...
