Patent ID: RE41930

Claim:
A method for determining a candidate cell for one of a first active set and a second active set, the method comprising: determining a quality factor for each cell in an active set for which the a candidate cell is to be determined , wherein the active set comprises a first active set or a second active set ; determining the quality factor of a test cell; accepting the test cell as a candidate cell for the active set for which the candidate cell is to be determined, if an acceptance criterion, which defines a value as a limit for accepting the test cell, is fulfilled; selecting the acceptance criterion so that within the acceptance criterion a first limit value is equal to a second limit value multiplied by a finite number; wherein said first limit value is for a certain first quality factor of the test cell and for a certain first set of quality factors, consisting of quality factors of cells in the first active set, said second limit value is for a certain second quality factor of the test cell and for a certain second set of quality factors, consisting of quality factors of cells in the second active set, and the first quality factor is equal to the second quality factor multiplied with the finite number and the first set of quality factors is identical to a set formed of the quality factors belonging to the second set of quality factors multiplied by the finite number.
