A system for facilitating handoff adapted for use with a telecommunications network (10). The system includes position equipment for determining the location of a mobile transceiver (26) within a region containing a first cell (22) and a second cell (24). A comparison circuit compares the location with a predetermined handoff area within the region and provides a control signal in response thereto. A handoff initiation circuit initiates handoff of themobile transceiver (26) between the first cell (22) and the second cell (24) in response to the control signal. A position database (50) has map information depicting the coverage area of the first and second cells (22, 24) and the predetermined handoff area. The selector runs software for comparing the location to the map information and providing the control signal when the location is within the predetermined handoff area. The base station (18) includes and implements instructions for completing hard handoff in response to the control signal.
