Patent ID: 7035651

Claim:
A mobile communications terminal for a mobile communications network comprising at least one radio base station location which covers at least two spatial radio coverage areas, wherein at the radio base station location there are arranged a plurality of radio base station transmitters which, in each case in one of the radio coverage areas, on the downlink radiate radio signals via a plurality of transmitting antennae for reception by mobile communications terminals, and wherein the radio base station is connected to a computer which, for the mobile communications terminal, determines the radio reception direction on the downlink, the mobile communications terminal measuring the reception levels of radio signals which are radiated at least from a first transmitting antenna and a second transmitting antenna of the transmitting antennae, and communicating the reception levels to the radio base station, wherein the radio base station transmits the reception levels to the computer, which forms a ratio value in each case from two of the measured reception levels, and estimates azimuthal angles for the radio reception direction to be determined based on the ratio value.
