A method of controlling the traffic load in a telecommunications system in which the communication between terminals and the network takes place through an air interface, comprises the following steps: determining a dummy traffic load, that is to be generated, generating said dummy traffic load in the network. An apparatus for controlling the traffic load in a telecommunications network is also disclosed, comprising means for determining the dummy traffic load to be generated, and means (15) for generating said dummy traffic load. The traffic load to be generated may be determined on the basis of the current traffic load, for example, to keep the total traffic load at a constant level or to add dummy traffic load to the ordinary traffic load in dependence of the current ordinary traffic load.
