Abstract
The present invention relates to a method for operating a user equipment maintaining a normalized transmission power value, indicating the maximum transmission power of the transmitting circuitry of the user equipment, further comprising the step for the user equipment of: receiving a predetermined sufficient power level to be achieved at the base station receiver from the base station, deriving a pathloss value from signals received from the serving base station, determining a signal power value out of the normalized transmission power value of the user equipment and the pathloss value, and when the determined signal power value level is lower than a predetermined sufficient power level at the base station: performing a cell re-selection to another base station.
