Abstract:
Disclosed is a method performed by an airborne base station (155) arranged at an aircraft (160) and providing radio coverage to a wireless device (150) residing in the aircraft (160). The method comprises obtaining altitude information indicating at least one of the present altitude of the aircraft (160) and an altitude rate of change of the aircraft (160), and handling a connection of the wireless device (150) to the airborne base station (155) based on the obtained altitude information.
