1. A method, operable at a network node, for providing coverage information to a wireless UE device, comprising:
- providing a database that correlates coverage information for a radio access network with geographic area locations;
accepting updates to the coverage information for the radio access network via a first interface; and
downloading coverage information from said database to a wireless user equipment (UE) device via a second interface.

Abstract
A network node provides coverage information to wireless UE devices from a database that correlates coverage information for a radio access network with geographic area locations. The network node accepts updates to the coverage information for the radio access network via a first interface and downloads coverage information from the database to a wireless user equipment (UE) device via a second interface.
