Method and wireless device for managing selection of WLAN in a cell operated by a 3GPP cellular communication system
Abstract:
A method and a wireless device for managing selection of a Wireless Local Area Network “WLAN” are disclosed. The wireless device obtains a first sub-set of WLAN identifiers, which first sub-set relates to user preference for selection of WLAN, and/or a second sub-set of WLANs, which second sub-set relates to WLAN Selection Policy. The wireless device receives, from the radio network node, a third sub-set of WLAN identifiers, which third sub-set relates to a list of WLANs, wherein each of the first and/or second sub-sets and the third sub-set is associated with a respective priority level for indicating which WLAN to prioritize over the other WLANs. The wireless device selects a WLAN from among the first, second and third sub-sets of WLAN identifiers based on the respective priority levels. The wireless device evaluates RAN rules in view of the selected WLAN, and connects to the selected WLAN when the RAN rules are fulfilled.
