Abstract
Methods and nodes in a cellular communication system for supporting Random Access. A method in a first network node involves determining at least one uplink radio resource amongst a plurality of radio resources, and refraining from scheduling uplink communication in the at least one uplink radio resource, thus enabling a UE in an area with an uplink/downlink imbalance to perform Random Access to a neighbor second network node (B).
