Abstract
A cellular mobile telephone network is disclosed in which a mobile station requests service in data modulated on a common random access channel (RACH) in a format associated with first a cell in which the mobile station is located. Base stations in cells neighbouring the first cell, are configured to demodulate the RACH message burst having the format associated with the first cell, and to pass the demodulated data to a radio network controller (RNC). This enables the average power required for a successful RACH transmission to be reduced.
