Abstract

See full text

The present invention relates to methods and means for determining handovers in a cellular radio communication system. Power-budgets for a serving and a target cell are calculated (301,302). A ranking value for both cells is determined from the power-budgets (306,307). A new ranking value for the target cell is calculated (309) by adding a specific adjustment value, dependent on the BER in the serving cell and the target cell and derived from a communication-quality table, to the ranking value of the target cell. A handover is performed if the new ranking value exceeds the ranking value of the serving cell.
