HANDOVER FOR BASE STATIONS WITH CELLULAR BACKHAUL

Control of handover management at a first base station in a cellular network is provided. A separate, provisioning base station of the cellular network may provide the first base station with a radio backhaul interface to a core network part of the cellular network. Then, handover status information may be communicated to the first base station, the information being based on a handover status for the provisioning base station. Additionally or alternatively, the first base station is configured for operation whilst mobile and a a mobility parameter is determined for it, relating to a change in location for the first base station. Handover status information is communicated to the first base station based on the determined mobility parameter.
