Abstract
The disclosure refers to a method in a network entity for establishing network cells in a wireless communication system, wherein the network entity provides wireless network coverage to a plurality of network cells. The method comprising the method steps of: identifying a need of establishing network cells, accessing a network cell establishment list, wherein the network cell establishment list defines a number of network cells and an order in which respective network cell is to be established, and establishing network cells in accordance with the order provided by the network cell establishment list. The disclosure also refers to a network entity configured to perform such method.

A method performed by a network entity for establishing network cells in a wireless communication system, wherein the network entity provides wireless network coverage to a plurality of network cells, the method comprising method steps of:
- identifying a need of establishing network cells,
- accessing a network cell establishment list, wherein the network cell establishment list defines a number of network cells and an order in which the network cells are to be established, wherein the order in which the network cells are to be established is at least partially based on whether a network cell is classified as an access network cell, a capacity network cell, or as an emergency call network cell, and
- establishing the network cells in accordance with the order provided by the network cell establishment list.
A network entity of a wireless communication system for providing wireless network coverage to a plurality of network cells, the network entity comprising processing circuitry being configured to cause the network entity to:
- identify a need of establishing network cells,
- access a network cell establishment list, wherein the network cell establishment list defines a number of network cells and an order in which the network cells are to be established, wherein the order in which the network cells are to be established is at least partially based on whether a network cell is classified as an access network cell, a capacity network cell, or as an emergency call network cell, and
- establish the network cells in accordance with the order provided by the network cell establishment list.
A non-transitory computer readable medium comprising computer-executable instructions, wherein the computer-executable instructions enable a network entity to, when the computer-executable instructions are executed on a processor included in the network entity:
- identify a need of establishing network cells,
- accessing a network cell establishment list, wherein the network cell establishment list defines a number of network cells and an order in which the network cells are to be established, wherein the order in which the network cells are to be established is at least partially based on whether a network cell is classified as an access network cell, a capacity network cell, or as an emergency call network cell, and
- establishing the network cells in accordance with the order provided by the network cell establishment list.
