Abstract
A method for reselection of a cell in a wireless network comprises a) detecting that a level of a current serving cell is below a threshold defined for the current serving cell; b) determining the availability of a target cell at a lower or equal priority layer than the current serving cell; c) determining, for at least one available target cell at a lower or equal priority layer than the current serving cell, whether the available target cell has a level above a threshold defined for the available target cell; and d) selecting the available target cell if the determination at c) is affirmative; if the determination at c) is negative, using a hysteresis to select any target cell with a level better than the serving cell.
