Abstract
An apparatus for performing handover in an advanced mobile communication system which provides traffic service to a mobile terminal in a multiple cell environment, the apparatus includes: a handover control unit for recognizing cell determination parameters based on terminal status information collected from the mobile terminal and/or information on traffic provided to the mobile terminal; a handover determination unit for assigning predetermined weights to each of the cell determination parameters when handover is required; a cell selection control unit for determining importance of each of the cell determination parameters based on the assigned weights and generating cell selection information for selecting a candidate cell for handover, which is the most optimal for the cell determination parameters in the order of the importance, among cells adjacent to a serving cell to which the mobile terminal belongs; and a handover execution unit for executing the handover based on the cell selection information.
