Abstract: A method and system for controlling application of split-uplink mode in a wireless communication system including an access node. In an example implementation, a method includes determining a first count defining how many user equipment devices (UEs) are connected with the access node and do not support a split-uplink-mode operation in which uplink user-plane data flow is split between air-interface transmission to the access node and air-interface transmission to another access node. Further, the method includes determining a second count defining how many UEs are connected with the access node as part of dual connectivity and support the split-uplink-mode operation. And the method includes, based on the first count and the second count, controlling whether the access node will allow the split-uplink-mode operation, such as whether the access node will allow new activation of the split-uplink-mode operation.

Abstract: A method and system for controlling connectivity of a user equipment device (UE). When a UE is served with dual connectivity by a first access node over a first connection in accordance with a first radio access technology (RAT) and a second access node over a second connection in accordance with a second RAT, initiation of a voice call for the UE will be detected. And in response to at least detecting the initiation of the voice call for the UE, the first access node will invoke transition of the UE from being served with the dual connectivity over the first connection and the second connection to instead being served with standalone connectivity over the first connection.
