Switching method and device of serving cell of mobile terminal

The present invention discloses a handover method and apparatus for a mobile terminal serving cell, comprising: determining a number of mobile terminals within a distance of the current time of the most recent set time interval has switched serving cell; and when the determined number is greater than the set number threshold, reducing the switching gate of the mobile terminal is limited less than a set switch threshold; and when the handover indicator neighboring cell of the current serving cell is detected by the mobile terminal reaches the switching threshold of the mobile terminal, the service of the mobile terminal cell handover to the neighboring cell. The method and apparatus of the present invention provides, reducing dropped calls serving cell handover when the mobile terminal speed movement.
