  • Publication number: 20150105071
    Abstract: Methods and arrangements, for supporting cell selection in a mobile terminal (UE1, 1101) associated with a set of serving cell candidates (Cell1, Cell2, Cell5, Cell7, Cell10). The method in the mobile terminal involves evaluating (804, 806) a first serving cell candidate (Cell5) from the set by estimating (804) the distance (d5) from the mobile terminal to the first serving cell candidate and determining (806) whether the estimated distance exceeds a predetermined distance, based on a criterion. The method further involves refraining (810) from performing a call on the first serving cell candidate if the estimated distance exceeds the predetermined distance and instead evaluating (812, 814) a second serving cell candidate (Cell1) from the set. The methods and arrangements enable selection (808, 816) of a serving cell, from amongst the serving cell candidates in the set, within a predefined distance from the mobile terminal.

  • Publication number: 20130295938
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method in a network node for handling neighbor cell relations in a cellular communications network, the network node serving user equipments in a first cell, wherein the network node, upon reception of an indication from a user equipment that a second cell is a potential handover candidate cell for said user equipment based on radio condition criteria, is configured to add said second cell to a neighbor cell relation list. The method comprises applying at least one additional criterion for determining if said second cell should be added to the neighbor cell relation list; and if said at least one additional criteria is not met, then rejecting the addition of said second cell to the neighbor cell relation list even if radio condition criteria for addition of the second cell to the neighbor cell relation list are fulfilled.
