Abstract

This disclosure is directed to methods and system for intelligent roaming of user equipment ('UE') of a home network onto a visited network. The methods and systems monitor performance of voice and data services for UEs in coverage areas of edge cell sites of the home network. The methods and systems determine which UEs in the coverage areas of the edge cell sites to roam on the visited network based on decreases in voice and data services. The UEs in the coverage areas selected for roaming are pushed to roam on the visited network by sending a signal that instructs selected UEs to switch into roaming mode while the UEs are still in the coverage areas of the edge cell sites.
