Abstract
A controlling node for a cellular communications system, arranged to handle the control of one or more user terminals in a first cell and configurable to receive transmissions from one or more user terminals in the first cell, with a defined periodicity. The controlling node includes a receipt monitor for one or more users in the cell, the receipt monitor being arranged to monitor timely receipt of the one or more of the certain transmissions from the one or more user terminals at the expected time for the defined periodicity, and to initiate handover of a user terminal from the first cell to another cell if the controlling node does not receive one or more of the certain transmissions at the expected time for the defined periodicity from the user terminal.
