Implementing mechanisms to improve the performance of LTE-WLAN Aggregation

As the release of 5G gets closer, different technologies appear aiming to make a difference in this next generation of mobile communications. A proposed way to achieve more capacity for end-users in 5G is aggregating Long Term Evolution (LTE) and Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN), and allowing user...
