Abstract: A method, apparatus and computer program product are provided to manage and use access information in a transitional and/or multigenerational network environment. In some example implementations, an indication associated with the availability of services associated with a second network is received during the performance of procedures associated with a layer of a first network. Based at least in part on the indication associated with the availability of second network services in the location associated with a mobile device, a control signal is generated causing a reconfiguration of a mobile device. Some example embodiments arise in the context of the fifth generation (5G) networks deployed alongside Long Term Evolution (LTE) networks, such that the mobile device can be reconfigured based at least in part on the availability or unavailability of 5G service.

Abstract: A technique includes establishing, by a user device, a first connection with a first base station that is associated with a first radio access technology; sending, to the first base station, user device capability information including at least information indicating a first stand-alone peak data rate supported by the user device for the first radio access technology and information indicating a second stand-alone peak data rate supported by the user device for a second radio access technology; establishing a second connection between the user device and a second base station as part of a multi-radio access technology dual connectivity session with the user device; and receiving, by the user device from the second base station, resources for the second connection in accordance with a configured peak data rate for the second connection that is less than a stand-alone peak data rate for the second radio access technology.

Abstract: A method including scanning by a User Equipment (UE) at least one carrier frequency in a neighboring cell; determining, based upon the scanning, whether the cell is a downlink only cell or a downlink/uplink cell for the at least one carrier frequency; and based upon the determination, performing at least one of: sending a report from the UE, or starting or continuing downlink only operation on the at least one carrier frequency, or not allowing the UE to accept or start a downlink only configuration in the at least one carrier frequency.
