METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR REGULATING FREQUENT HANDOVER BY MOBILE DEVICES BETWEEN FEMTOCELLS

摘要

Disclosed are systems and methods for regulating frequent handovers by mobile devices between adjacent femtocells. In one aspect, the method includes determining if a mobile device is experiencing frequent handovers between femtocells, classifying frequent handovers based on cause (e.g., ping-pong between the two femtocells or high speed mobile device crossing a number of femtocells, etc.), and determining one or more remedial actions for regulation of frequent handovers based on the number of frequent handovers and their classification.
