A system for balancing communication traffic loading between adjacent base stations in a mobile communications network includes a mobile communications device having a communications subsystem, a processing device, a roaming software module, a storage device, and an RSSI adjustment sub-module. The communications subsystem is configured to receive signals from a current base station and one or more adjacent base stations. The processing device is coupled to the communications subsystem. The roaming software module executes on the processing device, and monitors a first signal strength and a current traffic indicator from the current base station and monitors a second signal strength from each adjacent base station. The storage device is coupled to the processing device and stores a recorded traffic indicator for the adjacent base station. The RSSI adjustment sub-module executes on the processing device, and calculates a first adjusted signal strength indicator as a function of both the first signal strength and the current traffic indicator and calculates a second adjusted signal strength indicator as a function of both the second signal strength and the recorded traffic indicator. The roaming software module compares the first adjusted signal strength indicator with the second adjusted signal strength indicator to control whether the mobile communications device roams from the current base station to the adjacent base station.
