Abstract:
A method includes receiving, from a user device, a global cell identifier of a cell in the second communications network, wherein information for forming a Location Area Identification ‘LAI’ can be obtained from the global cell identifier, and a Routing Area Code ‘RAC’ for use in identifying a target gateway component operating within a location area represented by the Location Area Identification ‘LAI’ and associated with the neighbor base station component, generating a handover request message in the first communications network, for handing over to the neighbor base station component operating as the target base station component, the handover request message incorporating the Routing Area Code ‘RAC’ and the Location Area Identification ‘LAI’, and transmitting the handover request message to facilitate the handover to the second communications network.
