Abstract

A heterogeneous Access Service Network-Gateway (ASN-GW) in an ASN in a WiMAX communication network. The heterogeneous ASN-GW includes a radio resource module and a handover module. The radio resource module provides Radio Resource Management (RRM) to a set of BTSs in the ASN. A BTS operates in one of the second-profile and the first-profile. The handover module is operatively coupled with the radio resource module. The handover module provides handover management to at least one BTS.
