Abstract

A method for a connection mode terminal to hand over between a home cell and a public cell in a mobile communication system is provided. In the mobile communication system including the home cell and the public cell, a region of the terminal is determined and a random access channel for the handover is pre-allocated. When the normal handover from the home cell to the public cell fails, the access to the public cell is accomplished using the pre-allocated random access channel. Therefore, the handover failure rate can be lowered.
