Abstract

See full text

When a first throughput between the wireless device and a first access node meets a threshold, an application requirement of an application running on the wireless device is determined. Measurements are received of a first signal level of the communication link between the wireless device and the first access node and a second signal level of a signal from a second access node received at the wireless device. A first data rate is estimated using a first communication scheme between the wireless device and the first and second access nodes, and a second data rate is estimated using a second communication scheme between the wireless device and the first and second access nodes. One of the communication schemes is selected for use by the wireless device and the first and second access nodes based on the estimated first data rate and the estimated second data rate and the application requirement.
