US Patent 10939367 Predictive scanning and handover

Systems and methods for predictive scanning and handover are described. In some embodiments, an Information Handling System (IHS) may include a processor and a memory coupled to the processor, the memory having program instructions stored thereon that, upon execution, cause the IHS to: receive context information; predict a loss of a first wireless connection based upon the context information; in response to the prediction, start scanning for a second wireless connection while maintaining the first wireless connection; and switch to the second wireless connection prior to losing the first wireless connection.
