METHOD FOR ENABLING THE DETERMINATION OF A CELL IN WHICH A MOBILE TERMINAL IS LOCATED AMONG A GROUP OF CELLS OF A WIRELESS CELLULAR TELECOMMUNICATION NETWORK

摘要

The present invention concerns a method for enabling the determination of a cell in which a mobile terminal is located among a group of cells of a wireless cellular telecommunication network. Each cell of a group of cells is managed by a base station. The method comprises the steps of:—detecting the presence of the mobile terminal in the group of cells,—enabling the mobile terminal to transfer data to at least a part of the base stations which manage a cell of the group of cells,—receiving data from the mobile terminal through a base station which manages one cell of the group of cells,—determining the cell managed by the base station through which the data are received as the cell in which the mobile terminal is located.
