A method for performing channel configuration of a base station in a cellular
radio
network, and a network element of the cellular radio network employing the method.
In the method, the base station is directed by a controller controlling the base
station to transmit a logical control channel on at least one physical channel
allowed for the cellular radio network, a fixed receiver box is directed to receive
the physical channel transmitted by the base station and to measure at least one
channel parameter representing the properties of said physical channel, a measurement
report on measurements made by the receiver box is transmitted to the controller,
the controller selects on the basis of at least one measurement report at least
one physical channel enabling good range, the base station is directed to use at
least one physical channel enabling good range.
