Abstract

Methods performed by a network node having a first transmission mode configuration for a first cell in a radio access network may be provided. A second transmission mode configuration for a second cell may be obtained. A mobile terminal may be steered to the first or second cell based on which cell has the transmission mode configuration for supporting a higher data throughput. A method performed by a control node in a radio access network also may be provided. A first and a second transmission mode configuration may be determined for a candidate cell and a serving cell, respectively. A serving node may be configured with the first transmission mode configuration. A mobile terminal may be steered to the candidate cell or the serving cell based on which cell has the transmission mode configuration for supporting a higher data throughput.
