A communication system is described in which a first base station controls a cell selection bias value based on signal measurements received from user devices within a cell operating range of the first base station. The signal measurement may be physical cell identifier, a reference signal received power (RSRP), geographic location of a user device or path loss measurement. The base station obtains data identifying the further base station having a different cell operating range that overlaps with the operating range of the first base station and determines the cell selection bias for at least one of the base stations based on the received signal measurement reports. The determined cell selection bias value is then transmitted to a user device within the cell operating range of the first base station. The bias is used to ensure user devices preferentially choose one cell over another, i.e. a pico/femto/low power cell over an umbrella/macro cell. |
