Patent number: 11737169
Abstract: A communication system includes a central cloud server that predicts a first travel path of a first edge device in motion. The first edge device is communicatively coupled to a first base station via a primary wireless connectivity option. The central cloud server determines a set of alternative wireless connectivity options to be made available to first edge device in advance for predicted first travel path. Each of the set of alternative wireless connectivity options includes a different specific initial access information. The set of alternative wireless connectivity options are pre-loaded at first edge device to cause first edge device to maintain a cellular connectivity with at least one of a plurality of base stations, where one or more alternative wireless connectivity options from the set of alternative wireless connectivity options are configured to be triggered along predicted first travel path bypassing an initial access-search at first edge device.
