Network and Method for Optimizing Cell Reselection by Using an Estimation of Mobility of a Mobile Terminal
First Claim
1. A mobile telecommunications network, comprising:
- at least one mobile terminal registered therewith;
a calculation device that calculates periodically at a minimum frequency an indication of the movement of the mobile terminal within the network, wherein a value on which said frequency is dependent is transmitted to the mobile terminal by the network; and
an adjustment device that varies at least one of;
said minimum frequency and/or and said value in dependence upon said movement indication.

Abstract
The mobile telecommunications network (n) has at least one mobile terminal (1) registered therewith. The network (n) has an active communication state with the mobile terminal (1) and an inactive communication state with the mobile terminal (1). Means Q; V for calculating an indication of the movement of the mobile terminal (1) within the network (n) in each of the states is provided. One embodiment is characterised in that, when the communication changes from a first of the states to a second of the states, the mobility indication calculated in the first of the states is used in the second of the states. In another embodiment, the indication of movement of the mobile terminal is calculated periodically at a time interval (CMCL). A value (DRX Cycle Length) which determines this time interval (CMCL) is transmitted by the network (n) to the mobile terminal (1). This second embodiment is characterised by including means for varying the time interval (CMCL) in dependence upon an indication of movement of the terminal (1).
