Abstract:
A system and method for inter-femto access point handoffs are provided. A method for gateway operations includes receiving a handoff required message, determining a handoff target based on information in the handoff required message, sending a handoff request to the handoff target, performing a bearer update, and initiating a handoff. The handoff target and a handoff source are anchored by a gateway.
