Abstract
The invention relates to communication between mobile nodes and/or node arrangements in wireless communication networks. In particular, the invention relates to a method in a radio access arrangement for improving the balance between the capacity allocated to initial access for network entry and the capacity allocated to payloads in the radio access arrangement. The radio access arrangement is configured to operatively communicate with a plurality of mobile nodes via an air interface. First, an initial access capacity is set to a value (S), and then a current initial access load is obtained (S). The next step is to increase (S) the initial access capacity provided by the radio access arrangement () if the current initial access load exceeds a predetermined upper limit (S).
