Abstract
The present invention relates to a method and an arrangement in a cellular radio communications system, where channels optimised for voice transmission TCH and channels optimised for data packet transmission PDCH are used. All channels optimised for data packet transmission may be reconfigured into channels optimised for voice transmission if it is unlikely that packet data services are to be requested. This is performed if no data packet sessions are going on in neighbouring cells and no subscriber stations are registered in a location area containing the cell in a manner indicating that they are prepared to perform packet data communication.
