Abstract

Systems and methods for a cell change based on target cell performance are disclosed. In some embodiments, a method of operation of a network node in a cellular communications network comprises receiving a measurement report from a wireless device having a serving cell, the measurement report comprising an indication that another cell is better than the serving cell such that the other cell is identified as a target cell for a cell change and the serving cell is identified as a source cell for the cell change. The method further comprises determining whether to perform the cell change from the source cell to the target cell based on one or more parameters indicative of a performance of the target cell. The method further comprises performing the cell change upon determining that the cell change from the source cell to the target cell should be performed.
