Abstract

A mobile telecommunications network includes a plurality of terminals, a core and a radio access network having a radio device for providing wireless communication resources to the terminals. Further provided is a processing device for recording information indicative of a movement cycle of at least one of the terminals through the radio access network and for identifying points within the movement cycle at which there are spare communication resources to provide a list of spare resource points to the terminal to enable the prediction of optimal data transfer points during a subsequent movement cycle of the terminal through the radio access network.
