A mobile communication terminal has a function of communicating with two
types of base stations, for example, one base station belongs to the
Global System for Mobile communications (GSM) and another base station
belongs to the Wideband Code Division Multiple Access (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.
