Abstract  Abstract

Novel techniques of access network selection in multi-access network environment are provided which allow for avoiding access selection loops for independent access selection processes. The multi-access network environment provides a first access selection function e.g. a 3GPP access selection function and a second access selection function e.g. an ANDSF based access selection function. At least a portion of the first access selection function ( 565) may be implemented by a network component (560). At least a portion of the second access selection function (110) may be implemented by a user equipment (100) e.g. a mobile terminal. According to the proposed concepts a selection priority information of the first access selection function (565) is made available to the second access selection function (110).
