Features

Peculiar in CDMA system, only happens among cells with the same frequency
Establish a radio link with target cell first, and then disconnect that with source
cell, thus, it can avoid communication gap
Soft handover occupies more system resource than hard handover
If two cells which are performing soft handover belong to the same NodeB,
maximum ratio combining can be performed in uplink, it is called softer handover

HUAWEI TECHNOLOGIES CO., LTD. All rights reserved Page 65


Softer Handover

When the two cells in soft handover belong to the


same NodeB, the handover is softer handover.
Softer handover has higher priority in handover
schemes because it has larger gain than soft
handover.
