Abstract
A wireless communication device comprises a processing system and a communication transceiver. The communication transceiver is configured to receive a first portion of a media file transmitted from a media gateway over a first wireless network via progressive download, and perform a handoff to a second wireless network. The processing system is configured to determine a content received ratio of the media file that indicates the first portion of the media file received by the wireless communication device, and generate a request for a second portion of the media file. The communication transceiver is configured to transfer the request for the second portion of the media file for delivery to the media gateway over the second wireless network, wherein the request for the second portion of the media file includes the content received ratio, and receive the second portion of the media file transmitted from the media gateway over the second wireless network via progressive download.
