Abstract
Methods and apparatus are provided for performing a handover from a macro base station to a home node in the macro base station of a mobile communications system. A location of a terminal is received from the terminal at the macro base station. A handover from the macro base station to the home node to which the terminal is registered is initiated, when a distance between the location of the terminal and a location of the home node is less than a first predefined threshold. A request for an allocation of frequency and resources having a minimum interference with the macro base station for the home node is transmitted to a home node controller.
