Abstract
The present invention proposes a method of channel allocation for a mobile terminal (MS) moving in a cellular communication network (NW), said method comprising the steps of: detecting (S21) the speed of said mobile terminal (MS) moving in said network, and dependent on said detected speed (S23, S25), allocating (S24, S26, S27) a channel of a specific type to said mobile terminal (MS). Accordingly, with the present invention implemented, delays in neighbor cell SCH decoding and signal level measurement are significantly reduced and may thus no longer result in incomplete data for inter-cell handover decision or even unsuccessfull handovers. Hence, communication network performance in particular in connection with handovers in a cellular network layout is improved. The present invention also concerns an accordingly adapted device for channel allocation.
