Abstract
Methods and apparatuses for controlling dual connectivity in a communication system are disclosed. Information on at least one failure in relation to a cell change of a communication device connected to a master access point and a secondary access point is determined. The determined information is communicated to the secondary access point. The secondary access point uses the information in mobility control.
Claims14
A method, comprising:
- controlling dual connectivity in a communication system, comprising:
- determining, by a master access point, information on at least one failure in relation to a cell change of a communication device connected by the dual connectivity to the master access point and a secondary access point;
- and
- communicating, by the master access point, the determined information by a transmitter to the secondary access point to cause the secondary access point to adjust in response to the at least one failure a configuration for use in mobility control of the communication device by the secondary access point, wherein the determined information comprises a profile identifier of the communication device for use by the secondary access point to identify the configuration associated with the communication device to adjust based on the determined information for the use in the mobility control of the communication device.

An apparatus, comprising:
- at least one processor;
- and
- at least one memory including computer program code, where the at least one memory and the computer program code are configured, with the at least one processor, to cause the apparatus to perform:
- controlling dual connectivity in a communication system comprising:
- determining information on at least one failure in relation to a cell change of a communication device connected by the dual connectivity to a master access point and a secondary access point, and
- causing communication of the determined information to the secondary access point to cause the secondary access point to adjust in response to the at least one failure a configuration for use in mobility control of the communication device by the secondary access point, wherein the determined information comprises a profile identifier of the communication device for use by the secondary access point to identify the configuration associated with the communication device to adjust based on the determined information for the use in the mobility control of the communication device.

An apparatus, comprising:
- at least one processor;
- and
- at least one memory including computer program code, where the at least one memory and the computer program code are configured, with the at least one processor, to cause the apparatus to perform:
- controlling dual connectivity in a communication system, comprising:
- receiving at a secondary access point information on at least one failure in relation to a cell change of a communication device connected to a master access point and the secondary access point, and
- using the information in mobility control of the communication device by the secondary access point to cause the secondary access point to adjust in response to the information on the at least one failure a configuration for use in mobility configuration of the communication device by the secondary access point, wherein the information comprises a profile identifier of the communication device for use by the secondary access point to identify the configuration associated with the communication device to adjust based on the determined information for the use in the mobility control of the communication device.
