Abstract

Network operators have deployed multiple network devices to provide stable data services amid a rapid increase in data traffic. One way to balance data load among the multiple network devices is by distributing the user equipments across the multiple network devices using an explicit detach with reattach required procedure. However, the explicit detach with reattach required procedure can disrupt on-going data services of user equipments. This disclosure provides systems and methods of an enhanced explicit detach with reattach required procedure that reduces disruption of on-going data services due to the explicit detach with reattach required procedure.
