To share the load between the cells, the MSC may request the BSC to perform a
specified number of handovers from one specified cell (high load) to other
specified adjacent cells which have less load.
The BSC examines if there are any calls that can be handed over from the serving
cell to some of these specified adjacent cells. In this case it suffices that the
specified adjacent cells satisfy the following equation (3) in addition to the
basic equation 1.
EQUATION 3.
AV_RXLEV_NCELL (n) > TrhoTargetLevel (n) + MAX (0, Pa) ; Where Pa = ( MsTxPwrMaxGSM1x00 (ADJ) (n) - P )
EQUATION 1.
AV_RXLEV_NCELL (n) > RxLevMinCell (n) + MAX (0, Pa) Where Pa = ( MsTxPwrMaxGSM1x00 (ADJ) (n) - P )
EQUATION 2.
PBGT (n) > HoMarginPBGT (n)
The parameter TRHO target level(n) (TRHO) (set for each adjacent cell) is the level which the signal level
AV_RXLEV_NCELL(n) of the adjacent cell (n) must exceed before the traffic reason handover to the adjacent cell
(n) is possible.
MS txpwr max gsm(n) (PMAX1)-P or MS txpwr max gsm1x00(n) (PMAX2)-P, depending on the frequency band, is the difference
between the maximum RF power that an MS is permitted to use on a traffic channel in the adjacent cell (n) and the
maximum power of the MS (P).
Note
Traffic reason handover from the serving cell to the adjacent cell in
question is disabled when the value of the parameter TRHO target level is
'not used.
The target cells for traffic reason handover are ranked only according to
radio link properties. Priority levels are not used.

If there is little traffic in serving cell, the following handovers are not allowed:
