<p>In a method of managing handover in a cellular wireless system, channel condition information is received from a mobile terminal attached to a serving base station. Information is also received regarding the location of the mobile terminal. The received channel condition and location information are stored in a data store. The serving base station accesses data in the data store to determine if the mobile terminal would have improved connectivity if it handed over to a neighbor base station, and, when such a determination is affirmative, it sends a recommendation to the mobile terminal to handover to the other base station. The channel condition and location data store may be located in the base station. The data store content may be generated by a request response mechanism in reply to the base station.</p> |
