Abstract
The embodiments relate to a system and/or method for handover within a heterogeneous network. The system for handing over a first mobile station between cells includes a small cell and a macro cell. The system includes a small cell gateway configured to serve a plurality of small cells. At least one of the plurality of small cells is a restricted small cell that restricts access to a limited number of mobile stations. The small cell gateway is configured to receive access information for the restricted small cell. The small cell gateway is configured to select a small cell among the plurality of small cells for serving the first mobile station in response to a handover request from a macro base station associated with the macro cell. The small cell gateway does not select the restricted small cell if the first mobile station is not included in the access information.
