Abstract
A method for determining weight factors of antenna beams, the method comprising using at least one directional antenna beam implemented with an antenna array to establish a radio link, forming a radio cell with the antenna beam, dividing the radio cell into at least two different cells by dividing the antenna beam, selecting weight factors of antenna elements of the antenna array such that the antenna element specific sums of weight factors of a radio cell formed with the antenna array and corresponding weight factors of at least one, second radio cell formed with the same antenna array are at least substantially equal within predetermined limits in order to achieve a predetermined power balance between different antenna elements.
