Certaines unités de ressources radio d'une cellule (130) sont attribuées par un nœud B (120), et le nœud B établit (710) une connexion entre un équipement utilisateur et le système par établissement d'une gestion des ressources radio (RRC) vers le RNC. Un premier canal sur une première fréquence est établi entre le nœud B et l'équipement utilisateur. Un support d'accès radio (RAB) est établi entre le nœud B et l'équipement utilisateur, et le nœud B recommande (725) au RNC une seconde fréquence pour le RAB. Le nœud B effectue une vérification (730) de la première fréquence du premier canal et de la seconde fréquence recommandée pour le RAB, et si les deux fréquences ne coïncident pas, les informations correspondantes sont envoyées (735) au RNC.
