Abstract

A system for cell selection in a cellular communication system (200) having a plurality of base stations (201,203) supporting user equipment (201). A radio characteristics processor (225) determines radio characteristics associated with a user equipment (201) and all base stations (201,203) of the neighbour list. Specifically the transmit power required for the signals of the user equipment (201) to be received at each of the base stations (201, 203) at a given signal to interference ratio is calculated. A cell selector (229) selects a serving cell using a selection criterion associated with uplink conditions in the communication system, and specifically the cell for which the calculated user equipment transmit power is the lowest. The invention is suitable for cellular communication systems such as GSM or UMTS.
