Abstract

Management information is determined for both non-drifting and drifting mobile radios being serviced by a cell and/or by an RNC and reported to a management system for further processing. A distribution of drifting mobile radios to non-drifting mobile radios in a particular cell (or for all cells controlled by another RNC) is determined using the number of established radio links in the cell (or cells) for both drifting and non-drifting mobile radios. The distribution along with management information detected for non-drifting mobile radios are used to estimate corresponding management information for drifting mobile radios. In this way, management information for both drifting and non-drifting mobile radios is reported to the management system using existing formats, protocols, and procedures in both the traffic and management systems.
