Method for monitoring the transmission quality in a cellular radio communications system
First Claim
1. Method for monitoring the transmission quality in a cellular radio communication system which supports plural different codec modes for the radio transmission in each of its cells (Z1, Z1′
- , Z2) between the base station (BS1, BS1′
, BS2) of the cell and a terminal device (MS1, MS2) operating in the cell, the codec modes being combined into at least two codec mode sets, and the base station and the terminal device of a connection exchanging with one another items of information concerning the use of the codec mode, wherein the extent of the use of the individual codec modes is determined, these items of information are collected into statistics (S1, S1′
, S2) respectively relating to a geographical partial region of the radio communication system, and based on the statistics the composition of the codec mode set is determined.

Abstract
In a cellular radio communication system that supports in each of its cells a plurality of different codec modes for the purpose of radio transmission, the terminals working in a cell and a base station of the cell refer to the information relating to the use of codec modes as CM information. The extent of use of the individual codec modes is registered by filtering the pieces of CM information from the data traffic of the cell and collecting them in a memory in cell-related statistics.
