Abstract
A method for controlling operation of a first base station of a wireless cellular telecommunication network including plural base stations and a server. The first base station sets transmission power of signals transferred by the first base station at a first transmission power value, detects a predetermined signal transferred by a mobile terminal, and if a predetermined signal is detected: establishes a communication link with the server, obtains from the server information identifying each second base station that manages a cell that is neighbor of the cell managed by the first base station and that is transferring signals at a second transmission power higher than the first transmission power value, establishes a communication link with each second base station, and sets the transmission power of the signals transferred by the first base station at a second transmission power value higher than the first transmission power.
