    Abstract: Described herein are systems, apparatuses, and processes for obtaining data for a specific PDN connection of a cellular network. A UE executes one or more applications utilizing one or more PDN connections of a cellular network. A TE generates an AT command for an MT, the AT command comprising a request for data for a specific PDN connection that can be offloaded from the cellular network to a non-cellular network, assistance data for determining offloading of traffic, and cellular signal measurements. The TE receives an AT command response, corresponding to the AT command, comprising data of whether the specific PDN connection can be offloaded, offload assistance data, and/or cellular network measurement data. The TE may receive unsolicited result codes when offloadablity of a PDN connection changes, offload assistance data changes, or when cellular signal measurements meet offload assistance criteria.
