Abstract
A user equipment (26) for wireless communication with a mobile base station (18). The user equipment is configured to: obtain a current location (P4) of the user equipment; receive a set of quality measures indicative of wireless data transfer rates in an area (A) comprising the current location (P4); present on a graphical interface (218) of the user equipment i) a new location (P5) comprised in the area (A), or ii) a direction (D5) to the new location (P5) comprised in the area (A). The new location (P5) is, in comparison with the current location (P4), associated with a relatively higher quality measure indicative of a wireless data transfer rate. A network node for obtaining and providing the set of quality measures is also disclosed, as well as related methods and computer readable mediums.
