METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR CONTROLLING RADIO COMMUNICATIONS NETWORK AND RADIO NETWORK CONTROLLER
First Claim
1. A method for controlling radio communication between a terminal (MS, TE) and a communications system (CN, GRAN) in a communications system wherein the communications connection between the system and the terminal is established via an active radio network controller (RNC) and active base station (BS), characterised in that the communications connection is directed to said active radio network controller via a second radio network controller (621-628).
