Abstract:
1. A mobile communication system that enables handover using a plurality of cells, comprising: a base station which forms a cell for connecting to a mobile station by radio and, when receiving from the mobile station a report of at least two received signal powers of at least two common pilot channels of the plurality of cells received at the mobile station, converts the received at least two signal powers in the report on the basis of transmission powers of the at least two common pilot channels of the plurality of cells thereby adjusting the at least two received signal powers and transfers the report containing the at least two converted received signal powers; and a base station controller which receives the report transferred by the base station and determines a cell to which the mobile station is to be connected, on the basis of the received at least two signal powers of the at least two common pilot channels of the plurality of cells that are contained in the report; wherein the base station adjusts the at least two received signal powers to values that reflect estimated losses on transmission paths.
