Abstract: Disclosed are methods and apparatus to prevent poor quality handoff decisions in mobile networks. The methods and apparatus effectuate a determination whether a predetermined condition concerning a cell has occurred as detected in the mobile device, such as unsuccessful handoff or a signal to noise ratio being less than a certain amount. Based on such determinations, poor quality handoff decisions can be realized by modifying or configuring the measurement report message to be sent to the serving network where the measurement report is configured to omit information concerning those cells not meeting the predetermined condition. Accordingly, these cells will not be considered in handoff decisions, thus increasing the quality of such decisions.
