In one aspect of the present invention, a method for controlling a
communications session with a mobile device is provided. The method
comprises selecting a plurality of base stations, where at least a
portion of the base stations are adapted to operate as a secondary agent,
and wherein the secondary agent is capable of communicating with a mobile
device. Substantially similar data is then delivered to a plurality of
the secondary agents, and a first one of the secondary agents is selected
as a first serving secondary agent to communicate with the mobile device.
The first serving secondary agent transfers the data to the mobile device
during the communications session.
