Abstract

A method, system and device load balancing in a telecommunications network is provided where the selection of the one or more User Equipment (UE) 150, to be relocated from a source cell 112 to a target cell 122, is based on a prediction value of the performance in the target cell. The prediction of the performance in the target cell is performed by mapping the current load of the target cell and a current detected signal of the target cell, into a perceived performance, perceived by UEs that have been relocated previously. After relocation of the UE the perceived performance in the target cell is measured actually and fed back 312 by the target cell RBS 120 to the source cell RBS 110, and used for updating the predicted performance value.
