Abstract
Various embodiments are described to enable improved inter-network/inter-technology handover of mobile devices. A network device () collects dynamic information corresponding to mobile devices (), such as wireless measurement information at the device's location, and/or information corresponding to wireless network nodes (-), such loading levels/loading distributions. The network device then sends some or all of the dynamic information collected and/or statistical information generated from the dynamic information collected to a neighboring network information server () for access by other communication networks. By maintaining dynamic and/or statistical information in a neighboring network information server, such information can be made available to all the communication networks in a given region. One potential benefit to making this information available is improved inter-network handoff decision-making.
