Abstract
There are provided measures for information exchange for cellular non-cellular interworking such as for example LTE/UTRA-WiFi interworking. Such measures may exemplarily comprise measures for reporting, e.g. from an access point of a non-cellular local-area communication system or a terminal being served in a cellular wide-area communication system, information about at least one access point of the non-cellular local-area communication system to a radio access network level of the cellular wide-area communication system, and performing, at the radio access network level of the cellular wide-area communication system, traffic offloading management for at least one terminal being served in the cellular wide-area communication system to enable offloading of terminal-related traffic from the cellular wide-area communication system to the non-cellular local-area communication system on the basis of the obtained access point information.
