A cell selection device (D) is dedicated to a piece of wireless
communication equipment (MS) arranged to establish radio communications
with a radio communication network comprising radio communication cells
and to receive data representative of the cell environment and of service
capabilities of each cell of this environment from the network. This
device (D) comprises a control means (CM) arranged, when its equipment
(MS) needs to access a chosen network service, to access the data
received by the equipment (MS) and representative of the cell environment
and the corresponding cell service capabilities, to determine whether
there is at least one cell in this environment that allows to access the
network service, and to order the equipment (MS) either to pursue or to
establish a radio communication with the network via a selected one of
these determined cells if the selected cell allows at least one chosen
radio parameter criterion to be satisfied.
