This paper shows and solves a handover problem occurring with current power control mechanisms in co-channel Wideband Code Division Multiple Access (WCDMA) heterogeneous networks. The problem is the mismatch between the required uplink transmits power when a user is communicating to a small cell and an underlying microcellular base-station. This paper introduces Time Window Handover (TWHO) algorithm to adapt the transmit power of the small cell users during the handover regime to prevent such Signal to Interference plus Noise Ratio (SINR) drops.
