| 摘要 |
The present invention relates to a method and an arrangement for handling neighbouring cell lists when a new radio base station (15e) is introduced into a communication network, said neighbouring cell lists being used for facilitating handover of one or more user equipments moving between cells (A, B, C, E), each being served by a radio base station (15a-c) in said communication network, and performing measurements upon which said neighbouring cell lists are based. The new radio base station (15e) is initially turned on on a low output power, whereby said user equipments are given an opportunity to detect said new radio base station (15e) and update neighbouring cell lists of radio base stations (15a-c) surrounding said new radio base station (15e) and also to create a neighbouring cell lists for said new radio base station (15e), without having to make a handover to said new radio base station (15e). Then, over time, said output power of said new radio base station (15e) is slowly increased until it has reached a pre-defined output power and has become a handover candidate in said neighbouring cell lists of radio base stations (15a-c) surrounding said new radio base station (15e). |
