METHOD FOR DETERMINING IN WHICH CONDITION A FIRST BASE STATION WHICH IS IN AN ENERGY SAVING MODE HAS TO SWITCH IN ANOTHER OPERATION MODE.

摘要

The present invention concerns a method for determining, in a wireless cellular telecommunication network, in which condition a first base station which is in an energy saving mode has to switch in an operation mode which enables a mobile terminal to be handled by the first base station and wherein the mobile terminal is currently handled by a second base station. The method comprises the steps of: - obtaining information representative of a path gain between the second base station and the mobile terminal and of a path gain between the first base station and the mobile terminal, - determining, from the information representative of the path gains a power of transmission of signal transferred by the first base station which enables the mobile terminal to be handled by the first base station and by the second base station.
