Abstract
The present disclosure includes a system and method for managing handovers between network devices. In some implementations, a method includes receiving a request to handover a call session from a femtocell to a macrocell associated with a cellular core network. The femtocell comprise cellular radio technology. A Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) message is generated based, at least in part, on the handover request. The SIP message is transmitted to a communication node associated with the cellular core network.
Claims24
A method for managing a handover, comprising:
- receiving a request to handover a call session from a femtocell to a macrocell associated with a cellular core network, the femtocell comprising cellular radio technology;
- generating a Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) message based, at least in part, on the handover request;
- and
- transmitting the SIP message to a communication node associated with the cellular core network.
A device for managing a handover, comprising:
- a wireless receiver configured to receive a request to handover a call session from a femtocell to a macrocell associated with a cellular core network, the femtocell comprising cellular radio technology;
- a conversion module configured to generate a Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) message based, at least in part, on the handover request;
- and
- an IP transmitter configured to transmit the SIP message to a communication node associated with the cellular core network.
