Abstract

In some embodiments, a user equipment device (UE) may be configured to perform handover of a communication session from a first packet data network (PDN) to a second PDN. The UE may include a radio and processing circuitry coupled to the radio and configured to interoperate with the radio. The radio may include one or more antennas for performing wireless communications over at least a first packet data network (PDN) (i.e., packet-switched network) and a second PDN. The UE may be configured to communicate over the first PDN according to first context information that was assigned to the UE and initiate a handover operation from the first PDN to the second PDN. In response to initiating the handover operation, the UE may communicate over the second PDN using the first context information for at least a first time duration.
