ABSTRACT:
Method and arrangements for enabling improved handover of a user equipment (3) communicating in a first radio access network (1) utilizing a first radio access technology (RAT), where the user equipment (3) measures a first parameter and a second parameter for a plurality of neighboring cells (20) of at least a second radio access network (2) utilizing WCDMA, reports the measured parameters to a node (10) in the first network (1) and handover is initiated to one of the cells (20) in the second network (2) based on both of the reported first parameter and second parameters.
