Zusammenfassung:The likelihood of dropping a call while a User Equipment (112) is moving quickly from a macrcell (C) into a small cell (B) and then out again because there is insufficient time to set up measurements in the User Equipment, is mitigated by forcing the User Equipment to enter compressed mode as soon as it enters the small cell (B). By immediately forcing the User Equipment to enter compressed mode rather than waiting until it reports that the serving cell is getting weak, it stands a better chance of finding inter-frequency (ie. non-co-channel) and inter-RAT (ie. different radio access technologies) neighbouring cells ready to hand out to.
