<p>A method is proposed for communication traffic load balancing between cells of a communication system which are differently loaded, wherein an evaluation factor is determined by a predefined mapping function for a home cell k and for at least one other cell 1, the evaluation factor being a measure of the load of the cells, and wherein at least one comparing factor is determined with respect to the home cell evaluation factor by comparing the evaluation factor of the home cell with those of the at least one further cell, and whereby each of the comparing factors are assigned to corresponding traffic load penalty factors, the traffic load penalty factors being a measure of load difference and/or transmission quality between the cells, thereby the assignment is repeated in a loop comprising the following determining steps wherein current traffic load penalty factors are determined depending on predefined traffic load penalty factors and/or forerunner traffic load penalty factors determined in the loop, whereby a cell and/or cells in comparison to the home cell with regard to unused transmission capacity and/or a time at which at least a part of the traffic of the home cell is handed over to at least one cell with unused capacity is evaluated based on the the current traffic load penalty factors.</p> |
