Abstract

A method of measuring radio path quality values (SQ) in a digital mobile telephone network (PLMN) comprising at least one mobile station (MS). In the method, co-ordinates (XY) of a measuring point are determined and transmitted to the mobile telephone network (PLMN). A mobile test device (TS) measures the radio path quality values (SQ) from a downlink transmission path. The mobile telephone network (PLMN) measures the radio path quality values (SQ) from an uplink transmission path. According to the invention, the mobile test device (TS) sends the results from said measurements to the mobile telephone network (PLMN) essentially without delay. The mobile telephone network (PLMN) receives the measurement results (SQ) sent by the mobile test device (TS) and combines them with its own measurement results (SQ) and with the co-ordinates (XY) of the measuring point essentially without delay. The mobile telephone network (PLMN, OMC) has access to the combined measurement results (SQ, XY) as soon as possible, whereby the measurement results can be used for instance for controlling the location of the test device (TS).
