Abstract
A device may include a processor configured to determine that a user equipment (UE) device, attached to a base station, is within a coverage area of a small cell operating on a first channel, and that the UE device is not a member of the small cell and is experiencing interference on the first channel. The processor may be further configured to send an instruction to the UE device to provide a measurement report for base stations operating on another band or channel different from the first channel; receive a measurement report from the UE device identifying one or more neighboring base stations operating on the other band or channel; and perform a handover of the UE device to a neighboring base station, wherein the UE device is to communicate with the neighboring base station using the other band or channel.
