Abstract:
The present invention relates to a system for selecting a Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) in LTE-WLAN Aggregation (LWA). The system comprises a user equipment (UE) ( 101 ), a logical interface (Xw) ( 102 ), a wireless termination (WT) node ( 103 ) that terminates the Xw ( 102 ) on the WLAN, an eNodeB (eNB) ( 104 ) connected to the WT by the Xw ( 102 ), and a WLAN access controller (WLAN AC) ( 105 ) comprising WLAN access points (APs) ( 106 ) connected to the WT. The system further comprises a WLAN information acquisition module ( 201 ) for preparing a WLAN measurement report ( 201  b), a WLAN network selection control module ( 202 ) for verifying the BSSID of WLAN APs in the said list, and a WLAN network selection and association module ( 203 ) for attempting to make a connection by rendering BSSID ( 203 a ) to perform connection.

Claim (Index 1):
A system for selecting a Wireless Local Area Network, WLAN in LTE-WLAN Aggregation, LWA, comprising:\n a user equipment, UE ( 101 ); a logical interface, Xw ( 102 ); a wireless termination, WT node ( 103 ) that terminates the Xw ( 102 ) on the WLAN; an eNodeB, eNB ( 104 ) connected to the WT by the Xw ( 102 ); and a WLAN access controller, WLAN AC ( 105 ) comprising WLAN access points, APs ( 106 ) connected to the WT; characterized in that, the system further comprising: a WLAN information acquisition module ( 201 ) for generating a WLAN measurement report ( 201 b ) comprising a list of WLAN APs accompanied with respective Basic Service Set Identifier, BSSID, constructed based on a received LWA assistance configuration ( 201 a ), wherein the received LWA assistance configuration ( 201 a ) comprises a WLAN identifier that is adopted as a Service Set Identifier, SSID, wherein the list of WLAN APs comprises WLAN APs having the same WLAN identifier with respect to each other, and are named as <SSID:BSSID>, wherein the WLAN APs in the said list are ranked based on a received signal strength indicator, RSSI and are prioritized in an order of decreasing RSSI ( 201 c ) thereof; a WLAN network selection control module ( 202 ) for verifying the BSSID of WLAN APs in the said list by creating a Layer 3 tunneling ( 202 b ) and by requesting a list of AP Media Access Control, MAC addresses ( 202 c ) from the WLAN AC, wherein the list of AP MAC addresses are compared against the BSSID ( 202 d ) of WLAN APs in the WLAN measurement report, wherein replacing the WLAN identifier ( 202 e ) in the received LWA assistance configuration ( 201 a ) with the BSSID correspondingly; and a WLAN network selection and association module ( 203 ) for attempting to make a connection by rendering BSSID ( 203 a ) to perform connection.
