Abstract

A system is described for managing in-vehicle small cell gateway (IV-SCG) connections with a mobile wireless device. A home IV-SCG maintains a list identifying a set of neighboring SCG nodes, each one of the set of neighboring SCG nodes being a potential candidate for establishing a connection with the home IV-SCG forming a link along a data communications path between the home IV-SCG and the broadband network data resource. The home IV-SCG detects a triggering condition causing the home IV-SCG to seek out an alternative data communications path for the current data communications path. Thereafter, the home IV-SCG selects a partner neighboring SCG, from the neighboring SCG list, through which the alternative communications path passes, based upon a handover criterion based upon at least a capacity of individual ones of the set of neighboring SCG nodes to support current data communication requirements of a registered mobile wireless device.
