Abstract:
In systems and methods of determining the availability of a radio access technology, a first message is received from a wireless device in communication with an access node using a first radio access technology, wherein the first message comprises a request of the availability of a second radio access technology at the access node. Based on the first message, an identifier of the wireless device and an identifier of the first access node are determined. Based on the access node identifier, it is identified whether the second radio access technology is available at the access node, and a second message is sent to the wireless device instructing the wireless device to scan for the second radio access technology when it is available.

Abstract:
A system and method of providing wireless communications to a wireless device is provided. A scanning report can be received from each of a plurality of wireless devices in communication with a first access node using a first radio access technology. A second access node can be selected from among one or more second access nodes to initiate communications with the first access node over a communication link based on the scanning report from each of the plurality of wireless devices. The plurality of wireless devices can be instructed to establish communications with the second access node using a second radio access technology different from the first radio access technology. A bandwidth allocation of the communication link can be adjusted based on the plurality of wireless devices.
Abstract:
In systems and methods of frequency band selection for wireless device communication, a first frequency band comprising a first channel bandwidth is associated with a first application type and a second frequency band comprising a second channel bandwidth is associated with a second application type. When a request to establish a communication session is received at an access node from a wireless device, an application type associated with the request, a frequency band for the communication session with the wireless device based on the application type from among the first frequency band and the second frequency band, and the communication session is established between the access node and the wireless device using the selected frequency band.
