Abstract

Mobility management for wireless communication networks is provided. A method can include determining, by a device comprising a processor, expected utilities respectively for a group of network actions on behalf of a user equipment in a communication network based on an observed state of network devices of the communication network, selecting, by the device, a network action from the group of network actions having at least a threshold expected utility, resulting in a selected network action, determining, by the device, an adjustment parameter for the selected network action based on a conformity of the selected network action to a network policy applicable to the communication network, and based on the adjustment parameter, adjusting, by the device, an expected utility of the expected utilities corresponding to the selected network action to account for the observed state of the network devices of the communication network.
