Updating WLAN aggregation configuration: United States Patent 9986595

By: Teyeb, Oumer

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.
