First Claim
1. A system, comprising:
- a processor; and
a memory that stores executable instructions that, when executed by the processor, facilitate performance of operations, comprising;
mapping network load data associated with an access point device to a first signal strength to determine a signal strength threshold, wherein the signal strength threshold corresponds to a classification value generated as a function of a mapping of an input attribute vector associated with the access point device;
in response to an analysis of the network load data, updating device steering data to adjust a user equipment of a number of user equipment that are to be steered from the access point device to a network device of a second radio access network; and
in response to determining a second signal strength associated with the user equipment satisfies the signal strength threshold, facilitating a transmission of the device steering data to the user equipment via the access point device.

Abstract
Traffic associated with user equipment that are coupled to a first radio access network is steered to a second radio access network based on an adaptable signal strength criterion. The signal strength criterion is related to real-time network load conditions of the first radio access network and can be broadcasted from a serving access point to the user equipment. Moreover, the signal strength criterion facilitates steering, to the second radio network, traffic associated with user equipment that are located closer to a cell edge of the first radio access network before steering traffic associated with user equipment are located further away from the cell edge. In addition, based on the network congestion within the first radio access network, the signal strength criterion is modified to adjust the number of user equipment that are steered to the second radio network.
