Abstract:
Various methods and apparatuses are provided to address the need for reduced UE location reporting. In one method, an access network discovery and selection function (ANDSF) server receives (401) location information for a UE from a Long Term Evolution (LTE) Evolved Packet Core (EPC) function. The location information is received from the LTE EPC function instead of being received from the UE. The ANDSF server then generates (402) a policy based on the location information received for the UE and sends (403) the policy to the UE via a first access network. The policy includes an identification of an access point for use by the UE to access an access network different than the first access network.
