<p>The present invention relates to a handover method in a mobile communication system having a multilayer radio coverage. In a handover from a microcell to a macrocell, relative moving speeds of mobile stations (MS) in the microcell are determined and the traffic load in the macrocell is monitored. According to the invention, the service times are determined in the microcell and a percentage P of the number of the service times confined by a pre-set threshold service time R is determined. Then the percentage P of all the mobile stations (MS) within the microcell is handed over to the target macrocell in the order of the relative moving speed. A desired traffic load level in the macrocell is attained by adjusting the pre-set threshold service time R.</p> |
