Report measurement information to
- Expression (1) since satisfying the condition of Expression (1) serves as a trigger for reporting measurement information to the radio base station 30, Expression (1) may be referred to as a trigger condition.
- the parameter Th HO may be referred to as a handover determination threshold (handover threshold).
- handover threshold a handover determination threshold
- the mobile terminal 10 When the trigger condition of Equation (1) is used for handover execution determination, the mobile terminal 10 usually measures the radio quality of the listed cell registered in the neighbor cell list.

- the measurement is performed on the mobile terminal 10 that is randomly extracted from the mobile terminals 10 connected to the optimization target cell at a certain rate. For example, only a part of the mobile terminal 10 connected to the optimization target cell may be requested to request the measurement.
- the same mobile terminal 10 is requested to measure the radio quality of both the Listed Cell and the Detected Cell.
- the measurement of the radio quality of the detected cell has a larger load on the mobile terminal 10 than the measurement of the radio quality of the listed cell, and therefore, for example, one of the mobile terminals 10 that requested the measurement of the radio quality of the listed cell.
- the mobile terminal 10 of the part may also be requested to measure the radio quality of the detected cell.

- the priority calculation unit 105 only counts the number of times that the pilot signal reception power is reported to be equal to or greater than the threshold. At this time, the same received power threshold is used for the Detected Cell and the Listed Cell. However, when the mobile terminal 10 reports the radio quality of the detected cell and the radio quality of the listed cell according to the same trigger condition, all reports from the mobile terminal 10 may be aggregated.
- the priority calculation unit 105 sets the number of reports of measurement information for each neighboring cell that has been aggregated for a certain period as the priority to be registered in the neighboring cell list for each neighboring cell. At this time, if the total number of mobile terminals 10 that have requested the reporting of the radio quality measurement information of the detected cell differs from the total number of mobile terminals 10 that have requested the reporting of the radio quality measurement information of the listed cell, The calculation unit 105 corrects the priority according to the total number of each mobile terminal 10.

- N D and N L N D ⁇ N L
- the priority calculation unit 105 sets the number of detected cells n D and the number of listed cell reports n L to the total number N D of mobile terminals 10, respectively.
- N L normalized values
- n D / N D , n L / N L are the priorities of the detected cell and the listed cell, respectively. In this case, it is desirable that the mobile terminal 10 does not report the measurement information of the same radio cell repeatedly during the counting period of the number of reports n, but the duplicate report may be allowed.
- the priority calculation unit 105 multiplies the number n L of the listed cells by the ratio of N L and N D (N D / N L ) when the number n D of detected cells is the priority of the detected cell.
- the value ((N D / N L ) * n L ) may be used as the priority of the listed cell.
- FIG. 9 is a diagram for explaining a neighbor cell list update method by the neighbor cell list update unit 107.
- the adjacent cell list updating unit 107 calculates the priority of the detected cell and the listed cell, that is, the number of reports of the detected cell (n D ) and the number of reports of the listed cell (n L ) together with the identification number of the radio cell. 111 and the aggregation table 112, and the aggregation table 113 in which the identification numbers of the wireless cells are arranged in descending order of the number of reports is generated.
- the neighboring cell list update unit 107 extracts and extracts radio cells from the aggregation table 113 in descending order of priority (number of reports) with the number of radio cells (L Max ) that can be registered in the neighbor cell list as an upper limit.
