Abstract
In a communication system, a HeNB measures interference in an energy saving mode. When judging to have detected the interference by a UE during communication with an eNB, the HeNB cancels the energy saving mode and moves to a normal mode and starts issuing a pilot signal. When the UE judges to have detected the pilot signal and reports the judgment results to the eNB, a handover process from the eNB to the HeNB is performed for the UE.
