Mobility in Heterogeneous Network Environments

Abstract

There are provided measures for mobility in heterogeneous network environments, said measures exemplarily including configuring, at a network entity, and/or transmitting, from the network entity to one or more terminals, one or more terminal-unspecific handover qualification data defining a qualification of one or more cells for handover cell selection depending on a terminal speed, autonomously determining a terminal speed, and selecting one or more cells for handover cell selection using the received one or more handover qualification data on the basis of the determined terminal speed. Said measures may exemplarily be applied for mobility procedures in heterogeneous network environments based on LTE, LTE-Advanced, HSPA and/or UMTS radio access systems.

Dependencies are inferred from the claim text.
