Abstract
A radio access network (RAN) controller is provided. The RAN controller includes at least one transceiver and at least one processor operably coupled to the at least one transceiver. The at least one processor is configured to obtain measurement reports of a plurality of user equipment (UE)s. Each measurement report includes a measurement result per cell of a corresponding UE. The at least one processor is configured to identify candidate cells of a UE among the plurality of UEs, based on the measurement reports. The at least one processor is configured to transmit, to a serving base station for the UE, a control message including identification information for indicating the UE and identification information for indicating the candidate cells of the UE. The control message indicates a handover priority of each cell of the candidate cells. The candidate cells comprise a first cell for access and a second cell for access to be performed in response to a failure of the access to the first cell.
