Abstract

An allocation period for packet data in a packet data communication system is determined. Measurements from mobile stations are collected and a maximum allocation period for at least one possible base station for transmitting data packets to the mobile station is determined on the basis of the collected measurements. A base station and a corresponding allocation period are selected on the basis of the at least one determined maximum allocation period.
