Abstract

A cell transfer controller is described comprising a detector configured to detect radio cells available for a mobile terminal; a determiner configured to determine, for a first radio cell detected by the detector, a waiting period after which the radio cell is selectable by the cell transfer controller as a target cell for a cell transfer and a controller, configured to increase the length of the waiting period in case that during the waiting period, the detector detects a second radio cell which fulfills a predetermined criterion.
