Abstract
There is provided mechanisms for staggering connection establishment occasions for associated wireless modems. A method is performed by a controller. The method comprises configuring a group of associated wireless modems for mobility reporting. Each wireless modem is configured to report, to its serving radio access network node, at least one mobility related parameter as part of their mobility reporting. The wireless modems collectively are configured with different reporting trigger conditions for the same mobility related parameter.
Claims22
A method performed with respect to a plurality of individual wireless modems in a mobile communications device connectable to a communications network for redundant connectivity between the mobile communications device and the communications network, the method being performed by a controller and comprising:
- configuring the individual wireless modems with different reporting trigger conditions for a same mobility related parameter, so that mobility reporting for the individual wireless modems to the communications network is triggered at different times, thus staggering respective connection establishment occasions for the individual wireless modems with respect to the communications network.
A method performed by a mobile communications device comprising a plurality of individual modems connectable to a communications network for redundant connectivity between the mobile communications device and the communications network, the method comprising:
- obtaining different reporting trigger conditions for a same mobility related parameter for the individual modems;
- and
- performing mobility reporting for the individual wireless modems at different times according to the different reporting trigger conditions, thus staggering respective connection establishment occasions for the individual wireless modems with respect to the communications network.
A controller comprised in a radio network node of a communications network, or comprised in a mobile communications device, the controller comprising processing circuitry configured to:
- obtain different reporting trigger conditions for a same mobility related parameter, for individual modems in a plurality of individual modems included in the mobile communications device for redundant connectivity between the mobile communications device and the communications network;
- and
- configure the individual wireless modems with the different reporting trigger conditions, so that mobility reporting for the individual wireless modems to communications network is triggered at different times, thus staggering respective connection establishment occasions for the individual modems with respect to the communications network.
A mobile communications device comprising:
- a plurality of individual wireless modems connectable to a communications network for redundant connectivity between the mobile communications device and the communications network;
- and
- processing circuitry configured to obtain different reporting trigger conditions for the individual wireless modems for a same mobility related parameter;
- and
- wherein the mobile communications device performs mobility reporting at different times for the individual wireless modems according to the different reporting trigger conditions, thus staggering respective connection establishment occasions by the individual wireless modems with respect to the communications network.
