Abstract

Present location information about a present location of a mobile terminal is obtained, as is destination information about a target destination for the mobile terminal, wherein the target destination can be a waypoint destination or a final destination for the mobile terminal. Also obtained is wireless communication coverage information about wireless communication coverage associated with one or more geographic regions between the present location of the mobile terminal and the target destination for the mobile terminal. In dependence on the wireless communication coverage information, a navigational route is determined for the mobile terminal that mitigates a probability that the mobile terminal will lose a specific type of communication capability while travelling between the present location of the mobile terminal and the target destination for the mobile terminal.
