Abstract

Method in a wireless device for managing handover from a source cell to a target cell. When a first difference of a first quality measurement of a signal from the target cell minus a first quality measurement of a signal from the source cell is above a first threshold for a first time period, the wireless device sends a report to the source network node and receives a message to handover to the target cell. When a second difference of a second quality measurement of a signal from the target cell minus a second quality measurement of a signal from the source cell is above a second threshold value, for a second time period, the wireless device triggers handover to the target cell. When it is not above the second threshold value, for the second time period, it cancels the handover.
