FIELD: radio engineering, communication.
SUBSTANCE: invention relates to communication engineering. A method and a network node for enabling configuration of at least two patterns for a cell (C0) are provided. The patterns are transmission patterns or measurement patterns. The network node obtains at least two patterns. Each of the at least two patterns is associated with information about a respective restricted area (A1, A2) such that each pattern is used when user equipment served by the cell (C0) is located in the respective restricted area. Each respective restricted area (A1, A2) is smaller than an entire area of the cell (C0).
EFFECT: improved efficiency of the radio communication system.
