Abstract

The present disclosure describes methods and apparatus for detecting handover failures at an AP when the AP does not have an X2 interface with at least one of its neighbors. For example, methods are provided for detecting handover failures at an AP based on at least on a UE context release command message received from a mobile management entity (MME) and/or determining that a radio resource control (RRC) connection reconfiguration (RCR) message is not delivered to the UE.
