FIELD: radio engineering, communication.
SUBSTANCE: invention relates to mobile communication. A mobile device in a communication system is able to switch from a home base station operating in a hybrid or closed (CSG) access modes to a target home base station operating in a hybrid or CSG access mode. A novel handover procedure is described in which the core network is informed of the access mode of the target home base station using a path switch request in the handover procedure.
EFFECT: adaptation of a handover procedure for a mobile device from one base station to another.
