Abstract
A method of initiating handover of a wireless device includes determining one or more of a low battery condition, a low power headroom, and a high buffer status of a wireless device. The wireless device can be attached to a first access node deploying multiple radio access technologies over a first coverage area. The method further includes identifying a second access node deploying a single radio access technology over a second coverage area encompassing a location of the wireless device, and initiating handover of the wireless device from the first access node to the second access node based at least in part on the one or more of the low battery condition, low power headroom, and high buffer status of the wireless device. Systems and devices relate to initiating handover of a wireless device.
