    Abstract: A base station (109) of a cellular communication system (100) comprises an RNC interface (301) which receives a radio link handover initiation message for a radio link from a radio network controller (113). A switch delay processor (309) determines a handover switch delay and a characteristics processor (311) sets a characteristic of a radio link handover acknowledge message in response to the handover switch delay. A message generator (313) generates a radio link handover acknowledge message and transmits this to the radio network controller (113). The radio network controller (113) comprises an RNC handover controller (125) which determines a radio link handover switch time in response to the characteristic. A better timing of the radio link handover may be achieved. The invention may e.g. be applicable to an HSDPA (High Speed Downlink Packet Access) service of a UMTS (Universal Mobile Telecommunication System) cellular communication system and may reduce the amount of data discarded from buffers during an HSDPA handover.

    Abstract: After and/or during an emergency, telecommunication networks can become overloaded from mobile telephone users reporting the same incident. To minimize this, at least some emergency calls have associated location data indicative of a location of the mobile communication unit originating the emergency call. A grouping processor (205) groups emergency calls meeting a location criterion, e.g. a requirement that the originating mobile communication units are within a given distance of each other, into an emergency call group. A call processor (207) then modifies a priority of at least one call of the emergency call group. The invention may allow improved emergency call handling and may in particular prioritise emergency call handling in response to a probability that calls from the same location relate to the same incident thereby reducing the risk of degrading the handling of emergency calls relating to other incidents (in different locations).

    Abstract: A cellular communication system comprises a network based radio bearer controller (123) which is arranged to control and manage the setup and operation of radio bearers. The radio bearer controller comprises a RAB processor (201) which is arranged to set up a plurality of user plane radio bearers for a user equipment (101). The plurality of user plane radio bearers all support a common service. The radio bearer controller (123) further comprises a link processor (203) which links the plurality of user plane radio bearers. The radio bearer controller (123) can process linked user plane radio bearers in relation to each other, for example by terminating all linked user plane radio bearers if a single radio bearer fails. The invention may be particularly suitable for a UMTS (Universal Mobile Telecommunication System) communication system supporting services using a plurality of UMTS user plane radio bearers.
