Abstract

See full text

A computer implemented method of balancing load in a cellular network including first cells with a first priority and second cells with a second priority. The method including: detecting a high load condition in a first cell; using a network model including signal level information on different geographical locations for different cells to find a second cell having at least partially overlapping service area with the first cell; using said network model and population data including information about number of users on different geographical locations to determine a value to a network parameter that has an effect on whether a user connects to the first cell or to the second cell; and conditionally taking the determined value of the network parameter in use in the cellular network to balance load between the first and the second cell in the overlapping service area.
