Methods and apparatuses for cell evaluation |
摘要 |
Methods and apparatuses for cell evaluation by a mobile terminal in a cellular network. A base station (100A, 100B) of a cell (102A, 102B) estimates values of an Expected User Throughput, EUT, for a series of candidate Reference Signal Quality, RSQ, values, and broadcasts (1:1A, 1:1B) the estimated EUT values as EUT information in the cell. The mobile terminal (104) is then able to evaluate (1:2-1:4) the cell for cell selection or re-selection based on the broadcasted EUT information. |

1. A method in a base station providing radio coverage in a cell, for supporting cell evaluation for mobile terminals in a cellular network, the method comprising:
determining a set of cell-specific parameters pertaining to data throughput in the cell; estimating a value of an Expected User Throughput (EUT) for each of a series of candidate Reference Signal Quality (RSQ) values, based on the determined set of cell-specific parameters; and broadcasting the estimated EUT values as EUT information in the cell, thereby enabling mobile terminals to evaluate the cell for cell selection or re-selection based on the broadcasted EUT information. |
