Abstract
A method is provided for initiating a handover, to a non-serving first wireless communication network, of a wireless electronic user device connected to a serving second wireless communication network to which the user device is not subscribed. The method includes a step of obtaining a device measurement report from the user device. The method further includes a step of analyzing, by a processor separate from the serving second wireless communication network, the obtained measurement report to detect visibility of the first wireless communication network in the measurement report. The method further includes a step of determining, from the detected visibility, that handover of the user device to the first wireless communication network is required. The method further includes a step of transmitting a handover command to the second wireless communication network.
