Abstract

There is provided a method in a radio base station for handling cell reselection for a user equipment, UE, in a wireless communications network. The UE is associated with a first cell of the radio base station, which first cell has a first frequency. The wireless communications network comprises a second cell having a second frequency, which second cell has at least partly overlapping coverage with the first cell, and a third cell having the second frequency, which third cell has at least partly overlapping coverage with the first cell. The radio base station transmits cell reselection priority values to the UE, wherein the cell reselection priority values comprise a first priority value for the second cell, and a second priority value for the third cell.
