There are provided measures for a cell reconfiguration, more specifically a cell reconfiguration in a relay-enhanced network environment. Such measures exemplarily include recognizing a decision on a change of a configuration of a base station, informing a user equipment served by the base station in view of a forthcoming change of the configuration before the configuration of the base station is changed, and providing the user equipment being served by the base station with a synchronization signal indicating a new configuration after the configuration of the base station is changed from an old configuration to the new configuration.
