1. An apparatus on a first device side in a wireless communication system, the first device being configured to provide data forwarding service to one or more second devices in the wireless communication system, the apparatus comprising processing circuitry configured to:

  • monitor a predetermined trigger event regarding variation in status of the first device;

    control handover pre-measurement for the one or more second devices in response to the predetermined trigger event;

    control handover measurement for the one or more second devices according to a result of the handover pre-measurement;

    transmit a handover pre-measurement request to the target second device;

    acquire handover pre-measurement data based on a response of the target second device to the handover pre-measurement request, the handover pre-measurement data being acquired by performing statistical analysis on a relationship between a movement range of the target second device and a signal coverage of the first device;

    determine whether the target second device is to perform handover from the first device to at least one of another device and a candidate handover target set for the target second device, according to the acquired handover pre-measurement data; and

    control the handover measurement for the target second device according to a determination result.
