Systems and methods are described for performing a handover based on a target configuration. Signal information may be received, from a wireless device at a first access node, comprising a signal level for a received signal at the wireless device for a target frequency band, wherein the wireless device and the access node communicate over a source frequency band using a first subframe configuration. A second subframe configuration used by the target carrier to communicate with wireless devices may be determined. A traffic metric for the wireless device may be compared to the second subframe configuration. And, the wireless device may be instructed to perform a handover from the source frequency band to the target frequency band when the signal level meets a signal level criteria and the second subframe configuration satisfies the traffic metric.
