Inventor(s) include Qian, Haibo; Rink, Fred; and Brown, Michael.
The application for the patent was published on Aug. 22, under issue no. 34/2025.
According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "Aspects of the present disclosure relate to maintaining a network connection while moving from location to location as between different technologies such as from the 2G/3G to the 5G standard, and vice versa. A mobility management entity (MME), e.g., on a 4G platform, controls the transfers of sessions from the 4G platform to the 2G/3G platform, and/or when the UE transfers from, the 4G platform to the 5G platform. The MME classifies different sessions on the UE as anchored in GGSN, PGW or SMF. When needed, the MME is then able to transfer the sessions that are transferrable and to terminate the ones that cannot be transferred. By terminating the ones that cannot be transferred, the device can begin reestablishing the connection without waiting, e.g., without waiting for the timeout failure to occur."
The patent application was internationally filed on Feb. 16, 2024, under International application No.PCT/US2024/016059.
