Mobile communication terminal
First Claim
1. A mobile communication terminal capable of communicating with a base station which belongs to one of two communication system, comprising:
- receiving means for receiving radio signal from the base station;
measuring means for measuring received radio signal quality;
a storage unit which stores the relationship between received radio signal quality and data throughput; and
hand-over judging means for judging whether the hand-over process is to be executed based upon the received radio signal quality measured by the measuring means and the relationship stored in the storage unit.

Abstract
A mobile communication terminal has a function of communicating with two types of base stations, for example, one base station belongs to the GSM system and another base station belongs to the WCDMA system. The mobile communication terminal receives radio signal from a communicating base station and a neighboring base station, and measures received radio signal quality. Then, judging whether hand-over process is to be executed or not based upon comparison of the measured received radio signal quality and relationship between the received radio signal quality and data throughput.
