ABSTRACT:
In a cellular radio system having a two layer cell structure comprised by macrocells (1) overlaying microcells (2), handover occurs only via the macrocell layer. Thus when the quality of a call handled by a microcell (2) deteriorates below predetermined criteria the call is handed up rapidly to the umbrella macrocell and is only handed back down to a microcell when the handset has been in that microcell for a predetermined time and the quality of the link thereto exceeds predefined criteria.
