Classification: CPC H | IPC H

Claim 0:
1. A method, comprising:
monitoring, by a first network device comprising a processor, loading parameters associated with a user equipment utilizing communications resources of the first network device;
based on a probabilistic analysis of the loading parameters, generating, by the first network device, a loading profile of the user equipment, wherein the loading profile specifies different likelihoods of usages of a communications resource by the user equipment via respective network devices of a group of network devices; and
sending, by the first network device, the loading profile to a second network device of the group of network devices to which the user equipment has a highest likelihood of being handed over from the first network device;
wherein the generating the loading profile comprises predicting resource requests by the user equipment at a predicted time that the user equipment will exit a wireless communication range of the first network device.
