    Abstract: A method comprising: receiving at a source serving node (505) an identifier associated with a group of random access channel preambles for allocation by the source serving node (505), the group of random access channel preambles having been reserved at a serving node (503) from available random access channel preambles for the serving node (503); allocating at least one from the group of random access channel preambles, in response to determining a handover from the source serving node (505) to a target serving node (507); and transmitting (515) a message to the target serving node (507), the message comprising the at least one from the group of random access channel preambles.
