Abstract:
A method for performing a handover process for a mobile radio network terminal in a mobile radio network. The method includes observing the transportation vehicle, predicting a travel route for the observed transportation vehicle, and informing the base station to which the transportation vehicle is logged on about the predicted travel route. A base station forwards the information about the predicted travel route to the base station of the cell to which the user equipment device in the observed transportation vehicle is logged on. This information is forwarded to a core network management component wherein an evaluation of the information about the predicted travel route takes place. The base station of the cell to which the observed transportation vehicle is travelling according to the predicted travel route is informed to prepare for taking over the user equipment from the passenger in the observed transportation vehicle in the handover process.
