Abstract

A mobile communications network includes a core network including infrastructure equipment, and a radio network including plural base stations to provide a wireless access interface for communicating data to/from communications terminals. One base station operates as a serving base station to one of the communications terminals, to establish one or more communications bearers for communicating user data to/from the communications terminal via the core network and the radio network via the serving base station, and to co-operate with at least another base station to communicate the user data to/from the communications terminal. The mobile communications network can monitor a state of a radio communications channel between the co-operating base station and the communications terminal, and upon predetermined conditions, establish a communications bearer from the core network to the co-operating base station for communicating the user data to the co-operating base station transmitting the user data to the communications terminal.
