A Method and Apparatus for Selecting a Cell of a Communications Network |
摘要 |
A cell for communication with a user equipment within a mobile communications network in which the network comprises a plurality of cells, is selected by identifying (201) cells having the required signal strength for communication with a user equipment; grouping (203) the identified cells according to maximum transmit power level a user equipment may use when communicating within that cell, p-Max, each group being allocated a priority level such that the group having the lowest p-Max is allocated the highest priority level through to the group having the highest p-Max allocated the lowest priority level; and selecting (205) one of the grouped cells for communication with the user equipment from the group of cells having the highest priority level. |

1. A method of selecting a cell for communication with a user equipment within a mobile communications network, the network comprising a plurality of cells, the method comprising the steps of:
identifying cells having the required signal strength for communication with a user equipment;grouping the identified cells according to maximum transmit power level a user equipment may use when communicating within that cell, p-Max, each group being allocated a priority level such that the group having the lowest p-Max is allocated the highest priority level through to the group having the highest p-Max allocated the lowest priority level; andselecting one of the grouped cells for communication with the user equipment from the group of cells having the highest priority level. |
