Abstract

Systems and methods related to attachment of nomadic network nodes in a cellular communications network are disclosed. In one embodiment, a method of operation of a network control entity comprises receiving an attach request for attachment of a nomadic node to an anchor node, where the attach request comprises information indicative of one or more requirements of the nomadic node related to traffic and/or service demands. The method further comprises determining whether the one or more requirements of the nomadic node can be fulfilled with existing resources of a transport network that are allocated for the anchor node and, if the one or more requirements of the nomadic node can be fulfilled with the existing resources of the transport network that are allocated for the anchor node, sending, to the anchor node, an attach accept message to thereby accept attachment of the nomadic node to the anchor node.
