Abstract

The present invention relates to a method and arrangement for cell type information sharing between neighbor base stations in a telecommunications system. One embodiment comprises informing a second radio base station serving a second cell and having a neighbor relation with a first cell served by a first base station, of at least the cell type of the first cell. This is accomplished by adding the cell type information to a set of information to be signaled to the second base station, and then signalling the set of information to the second base station.
