Abstract
A method including: setting a first index value and a second index value representing levels of received power or received quality of reference signals from a first base station and a second base station; handing over a mobile station assigned to the first base station to the second base station when the first index value is smaller than a first threshold and when the second index value is larger than a second threshold; handing over a mobile station assigned to the second base station to the first base station when the second index value is smaller than a third threshold or when the first index value is larger than a fourth threshold; and performing adjustment of at least one of the first threshold, the second threshold, the third threshold, and the fourth threshold in accordance with load on the first base station and the second base station.
