Abstract
By first determining whether network conditions make it possible and necessary to assist the network in supporting communication devices in comparatively poor radio coverage, and then periodically determining what type of assistance would best improve the overall network performance, a cellular telecommunications network is dynamically adapted to improve overall network performance without requiring the introduction of new network equipment. In one example, the dynamic activation of the radio coverage assistance serves to reduce problems associated with users at the cell edge, resulting in improvements in overall cell capacity.
