Abstract: A method (200; 600) of balancing a traffic load among at least apart of traffic managing entities (105;110) of a mobile telecommunication network (100) comprising a plurality of traffic managing entities (105;110) is proposed. The method comprises the following steps: collecting (205; 605) traffic-related data referred to said at least a part of traffic managing entities (105;110); identifying (220; 620) a first set of traffic managing entities (105;110) managing an excessive traffic load on the basis of such traffic-related data; identifying (220; 620) a second set of traffic managing entities (105;110) adapted to take charge of at least part of the excessive traffic load to which traffic managing entities (105;110) of first set of traffic managing entities (105;110) are subjected.

Abstract: A method for configuring a wireless telecommunications network adapted to operate according to at least one radio system, includes a plurality of re-configurable base radio stations, wherein each base radio station is adapted to manage one or more cells of the telecommunications network, and wherein each cell has corresponding radio resources available. The method includes: obtaining measurements of the cells load status; dynamically configuring at least one of the cells by assigning thereto determined available radio resources depending on the measurements of the cell load status.

Abstract: A method, and a related system, for estimating coverage of a selected geographic area by a cellular radio mobile communications network including a plurality of radio base stations, includes: dividing the selected area into a plurality of area elements and determining expected serving radio base stations expected to serve the area elements based on an estimation of the strength of the radio electromagnetic field of the radio base stations in the area element. The expected serving radio stations are determined by: estimating probabilistic distributions of the strength of the radio electromagnetic fields irradiated by the radio base stations and perceived in the area element; and calculating probabilities that the area elements are served by the radio base stations based on said probabilistic distributions. The method can be exploited in the planning of a network, for example, in the estimation of the distribution of traffic.

Abstract: A method for estimating a territorial distribution of traffic in a selected area of a cellular radio mobile communications network, includes: dividing the selected area into a plurality of traffic-generating area elements; determining overall traffic in respect of said selected network area; and distributing the overall traffic across the plurality of traffic-generating area elements.

Abstract: A heald supporting frame constituted by a pair of horizontal cross-members for supporting the healds which are mutually rigidly locked by removable side members. The cross-members of the frame are formed by box-like structures made of composite material, in the ends of which inserts with high mechanical strength, made of metallic or composite material, are embedded so as to couple them, and the side members, as well as bushes for connecting the frame to the loom, are mechanically fixed to the inserts.
