Abstract: A base station generates and sends measurement configuration to a wireless terminal. The measurement configuration indicates the measurements to be made by the wireless terminals and to report on the performed measurements to the base station. The measurement configuration indicates that the measurements are to be performed and to be reported based on a prioritization level. The prioritization can be indicated at various levels including the measurement identities level, the measurement objects level, and the reporting configurations level.

Abstract: A base station node (26S) of a radio access network comprises a communication interface (62) to a higher layer network node (40) and a handover unit (50). The handover unit (50) is configured to request that the higher layer network node (40) make a decision regarding a target cell (28T) to which to handover a particular wireless terminal (30) when the base station node does not have roaming configuration information for the particular wireless terminal and an attempted X2 interface handover of the particular wireless terminal has failed. The target cell (28T) is of a type that is shared by plural public land mobile networks (42, 44).

Abstract: A method in a first network node for handling a GBR bearer is provided. The first network node is comprised in a communications system. The first network node allocates (202) to a user equipment, a GBR bearer for a data transmission. A first timer in the first network node is started (203), when scheduling data for the data transmission on the GBR bearer is interrupted. The first network node releases (204) the GBR bearer, when the first timer has expired, when there is a request for a bearer from a second network node, and when there are no further bearer resources available within the first radio network node.
