    摘要: Techniques and apparatus for handling changes in wireless local-area network access point, WLAN AP, in an aggregation scenario are disclosed. An example method is performed in a first access node (30) in a wireless network, where the first access node (30) is serving a user equipment, UE, (40) for which communications between the UE (40) and a first WLAN AP are aggregated with communications between the UE (40) and the first access node (30), in cooperation with a first wireless termination (WT) that controls the first WLAN AP. The example method comprises: determining that communications between the UE (40) and the first WLAN AP should be replaced with communications between the UE (40) and the second WLAN AP; determining that the second WLAN AP is controlled by the first WT; and sending a reconfiguration message to the first WT, the reconfiguration message comprising an identifier of the second WLAN AP.

    摘要: According to certain embodiments, a method by a wireless device for reporting a connection status is provide that includes receiving a message from a network node. The message may be related to a mobility set associated with the wireless device. The wireless device may determine that the wireless device is not connected to a WLAN access point included within a mobility set. A timer may be started, and the wireless device may attempt to establish a connection between the wireless device and at least one WLAN access point within the mobility set before an expiration of the timer. If the connection is established between the wireless device and the at least one WLAN access point within the mobility set before the expiration of the timer, the timer may be stopped. If the connection is not established between the wireless device and the at least one WLAN access point within the mobility set before the expiration of the timer, a report may be sent to a network node to indicate a connection failure.
