Abstract

In a mobile communication network, the chance of achieving multichannel connections is increased by determining if certain physical channels should be made idle to facilitate multi-channel connections and marking the channels that should be made idle. The marked channels may be moved actively, in which case the channels to which connections should be moved are selected, and the moving of connections to the selected channels is initiated. The marking and/or moving of the connection or connections is initiated, for example, when a predetermined number of attempts to allocate multichannel connections have failed, or when the network situation is such that the chance of establishing multichannels is low and should be increased, or when an establishment of multichannel connection is attempted unsuccessfully.
