The abstract of the patent published by the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office states: "Parameters for the propagation channels between each mobile terminal (14, 14A, 14B) and several fixed transceivers (13) are measured and a report message transmitted to a radio network controller (12), indicating at least one part of the measured parameters. The radio network controller processes the report messages. The parameters measured for each fixed transceiver are a propagation profile, including at least one propagation path associated with a reception energy and the parameters given in the report messages for at least one transceiver, comprise data on the energetic distribution in the propagation profile, taken into account by the radio network controller in processing." The patent application was filed on April 13, 2011 (13/086,179).
