Abstract
A telecommunication method for a telecommunication network providing discontinuous radio coverage is provided, in which the telecommunication network a plurality of cells, The method includes providing a data stream to a mobile terminal within the coverage of a first one of the plurality of cells, interrupting the data stream when the mobile terminal is moved outside the coverage, determining the location of the mobile terminal outside the radio coverage, predicting a second one of the plurality of cells to be the target cell of the mobile terminal, providing the data stream to a server being assigned to the second one of the plurality of the cells, resuming the data stream to the mobile terminal when the mobile terminal is within the coverage of the second one of the plurality of the cells.
