ABSTRACT:
In a cellular telecommunications network, a base station (BS) utilizes parameter(s) included in a received transport channel setup message (e.g., in a received COMMON TRANSPORT CHANNEL SETUP REQUEST message) in order to determine whether or not the physical channel identified in the setup message is already being used by another transport channel(s). Parameters included in the received setup message which may be utilized by the BS in making such a determination include, for example, cell ID, cell carrier ID, downlink scrambling code ID, downlink channelization code number or ID, and the like. The determined information may be used to check the consistency of setup messages received by the BS and/or to enable more efficient hardware configurations of such setups at the BS. Alternatively, the determined information may be used to decide whether to reject a requested physical channel setup request in other embodiments of this invention.
