Method and system for data rate based vertical handoff
摘要:
A method and system for using data rate as a basis to allow or deny handoff from an IS-856 (e.g., EV-DO) communication system to an IS-2000 (e.g., 1xRTT) communication system. A base station detects that a hybrid terminal has received a threshold low forward link IS-856 data rate for a threshold time period, and the base station will responsively evaluate the IS-2000 system to determine if the IS-2000 system has sufficient resources to provide at least as good a data rate as the IS-856 threshold data rate. If the base station thereby determines that the IS-2000 system is a good alternative, then the base station will allow a handoff to occur when the terminal seeks to handoff to IS-2000. On the other hand, if the base station thereby determines that the IS-2000 system is not a good alternative, then the base station will not allow the handoff to IS-2000.
