The objective of this paper is to introduce two important standards in networking policy - 3GPP Access Network Discovery and Selection Function (ANDSF) and Hotspot 2.0 Policy - and to propose a path toward convergence and improvement of these two policy standards with recommended actions.
Both ANDSF and HS2.0 specifications define policy objects and protocols for intelligent and seamless automatic next-generation network selection and enhanced user experience. However, there is not yet a single organization or program in the industry that brings them together.
