Abstract
A control apparatus () is configured to automatically update a neighbour relation table () of a source cell (A). The control apparatus () is further configured to add, to the neighbour relation table (), a new entry () indicating a neighbour-cell relation from the source cell (A) to another cell (B) different from both the source cell (A) and a target cell (C) of a handover from the source cell (A), in response to receiving a first message (S) that is issued when a radio terminal () that has experienced a failure involving disconnection of a radio link connection in the source cell (A) or in the target cell (C) attempts to re-establish the radio link connection to the other cell (B). This contributes to updating the neighbour-cell relations in response to detection of a handover failure.
