Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

Methods and arrangements for autonomous handover are provided. In a step, a mobile terminal sends a measurement report to a first network node. In another step, the mobile terminal starts a timer for measuring a wait period. In a further step, the mobile terminal waits until the wait period has expired. In still another step, the mobile terminal measures a signal used for mobility evaluations from the first radio network node. In yet another step, the mobile terminal performs random access to the second radio network node, if appropriate. Furthermore, the first radio network node sends information about random access channel (RACH) characteristics. Moreover, the first radio network node may send the wait period to the mobile terminal. In another step, the first radio network node sends the terminal context to neighbouring radio network nodes.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A Method in a mobile terminal for performing handover from a first radio network node to a second radio network node in a radio communication system, wherein the radio communication system comprises the mobile terminal, the first radio network node and the second radio network node, the method comprising the steps of: measuring a first signal evaluation value on a first signal received from the first radio network node, sending a measurement report c…
