1. A method of allocating a downlink channel to a new connection for an unconnected remote station within a cell of a radio telecommunication system comprising the steps of:

  • measuring the interference on each of a plurality of downlink channels at one or more locations within the cell;

    determining a transmission loss for each of the plurality of downlink channels between said one or more locations and a base station of the cell;

    calculating an estimated carrier-to-interference ratio, for said unconnected remote station, for each of the plurality of downlink channels using the measured interference and said transmission loss; and

    allocating one of the plurality of downlink channels to said unconnected remote station based on each said estimated carrier-to-interference ratio.
