Abstract
A method for the bandwidth optimization of at least one sector in a communication network is provided. The communication network comprises at least one mobile device () and a base station controller (). A Data Rate Control (DRC) cover value of a first mobile device () is set for a first sector. The method includes comparing a number of active users of the first sector with a threshold bandwidth when a DRC of the first sector is in lock for the first mobile device. Further, a second sector with available bandwidth and a DRC in lock for the first mobile device () is searched, when the number of active users of the first sector is greater than the threshold bandwidth. Furthermore, the first mobile device () is removed from the first sector and redirected to the second sector when the second sector exists.
