Abstract

An apparatus, computer program, and method are provided for acceleration of a handover if mobile communication device signaling is degrading. Signal information is received in connection with a mobile communication device being serviced by a cell of a network. It is determined whether the signal information indicates that at least one aspect of a signaling in connection with the mobile communication device is degrading. An acceleration of a handover is conditionally caused in connection with the mobile communication device, if it is determined that the signal information indicates that the at least one aspect of the signaling in connection with the mobile communication device is degrading.
