SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR HANDOVER OF AN ACCESS TERMINAL IN A COMMUNICATION NETWORK
First Claim
1. A system for implementing handover of a mobile Internet Protocol (IP) session in a communication network, comprising:
- a memory operable to store at least one context information rule associated with an access terminal; and
a processor operable to;
receive a registration request message from a target radio network controller;
in response to receipt of the registration request message, transmit a context information request message to an anchor IP gateway;
receive a context information response message from the anchor IP gateway, the context information response message including the at least one context information rule; and
apply the context information rule to the mobile IP connection.

Abstract
In one embodiment according to the present disclosure, a system for implementing handover of a mobile IP session in a cellular communication network generally includes a processor and a memory for storing one or more context information rules associated with an access terminal. The processor is operable to receive a registration request message from the target radio network controller and in response to receipt of the registration request message, transmit a context information request message to query context information from an anchor IP gateway. The processor is also operable to receive a context information response message from the anchor IP gateway and apply the context information response message to the mobile IP connection. The context information response message including at least one context information rule that is associated with the access terminal.
