  • Patent number: 10945169
    Abstract: A base station, a mobile communication system and a handover control method are provided, which are capable of preventing a handover failure and a ping-pong handover phenomenon which are caused by an interference from a neighboring cell to a serving cell. When a received power difference (S2?S1) between a received power S2 from a neighboring second base station, which is fed back from a mobile station, and a received power S1 from first base station, becomes larger than a predetermined threshold value, the first base station to which the mobile station is connected requests the second base station to stop a transmission of a downlink signal including at least one of a data signal and a control signal. In response to the transmission-stop request, the second base station performs a determination of a radio resource in which the transmission of the downlink signal is to be stopped and a notification of the radio resource to the first base station, and stops a transmission of a downlink signal.
