User terminal with improved feedback possibilities
First Claim
1. A user terminal for a cellular communications system, the user terminal comprising:
- a communication unit for making and receiving transmissions in the cellular communications system;
a motion sensor for sensing movements of the user terminal; and
a reporting function for reporting sensed movements as a user response for a service to at least one of a network node and a network operator of the cellular communications system, if said movements exceed a predefined threshold in duration and/or in magnitude, wherein said reporting function reports ones of the sensed movements which match a movement pattern stored in the reporting function of the user terminal, said movement pattern corresponding to a pattern of a user who uses the user terminal, which is a mobile device of the user, wherein the pattern of the user is indicative a defined sentiment of the user.

Abstract
A user terminal (100) for a cellular communications system, equipped with means (115, 130, 105) for making and receiving transmissions in the cellular communications system. The user terminal (100) is equipped with a motion sensor (135) for sensing movements of the user terminal (100), and the user terminal (100) is also equipped with a reporting function (140) for reporting movements sensed by the motion sensor (135) to another party in the cellular communications system if said movements exceed a predefined threshold in duration and/or in magnitude. In embodiments, the reporting function (140) is arranged to include one or more of the direction, duration or magnitude of said movements in its reporting.
