Abstract:

A device is operated in a cellular communications network, such that the device acts as a relay in a backhaul link between at least one first base station and the network. The device is configured to: detect signals transmitted by base stations in the network; identify the at least one first base station amongst the base stations; exclude the identified at least one first base station, and select one of the base stations based on the properties of the detected signals; and establish a connection with the selected base station.
