<p>The present invention relates to a handover technology between an unlicensed mobile access network and a cellular communication network. According to a first aspect of the present invention, a method of handing over a communication connection from an unlicensed mobile access network to a cellular communication network in a mobile terminal is provided. The method includes the following steps: acquiring a location information and/or moving direction and/or moving velocity of the mobile terminal (301); determining a handover timing or a handover probability of the handover at least partly according to the location information, moving direction and moving velocity (302); initiating the communication connection between the mobile terminal and the cellular communication network for handover preparation when the handover timing is less than a predetermined value or the handover probability is more than a predetermined value (303); executing the handover (304). By using the method, device and apparatus of the present invention in combination with the positioning-related information of the mobile terminal, handover between an unlicensed mobile access network and a cellular communication network is performed, and thus the handover reliability is improved.</p> |
