Abstract
Systems and techniques for handover management between macro base stations and home base stations. Upon receiving a measurement report from a user device including a physical cell identity and frequency pair associated with a candidate handover home base station, a macro base station transmits a message to a home base station gateway to obtain cell global identifiers of specified home base stations, which may include home base stations associated with a list of physical cell identifiers and frequency pairs including the pair received in the measurement report. Upon receiving the cell global identifiers, the base station identifies a handover target and performs signaling to the user device to direct handover to the target.
