Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO2000042779
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
A method for selecting a cell for a mobile station (MS) in a cellular telecommunications network, wherein the mobile station (MS) sends a radio station controller (BSC) measurement reports (6-4) comprising information (61, 631 ... 64N) about the mobile station's serving cell and its neighbour cells. The mobile station or its subscriber is associated with at least one set of special cells called LSA cells. Information on the set of special cells is transferred to the radio station controller (BSC), and the mobile station (MS) at least participates in the transferring of information, preferably by sending an explicit list of its LSA cells or by including in at least one measurement report (6-4) a flag bit (62, 641 ... 64N) indicating whether or not the cell in question is a special cell.
