Abstract

Systems, methods, apparatuses, and computer program products for a connection identification scheme are provided. One method includes determining, for example by an information receiver, a unique connection identity for an off-band connection with an information provider. The unique connection identity may be based on information related to a user plane connection with the information provider. The method may further include storing the unique connection identity, receiving radio access network information and synchronization information from the information provider, and synchronizing at least part of the radio access information with at least part of information sent in the user plane connection, using the synchronization information.
