Patent number: 11974236Abstract: There is provided mechanisms for controlling total average transmission power of a radio base station. A method is performed by a control device. The method comprises performing, for a current discrete time value t, control of total average transmission power {Ptot}(t) of the radio base station according to a back-off power control loop. The total average transmission power {Ptot}(t) is computed over an averaging time window T of the present value of momentary transmission power and the N?1 values of momentary transmission power preceding the present value of momentary transmission power. The method comprises evaluating, for a future discrete time value less than, or equal to, t+T, the total average transmission power, assuming that values of momentary transmission power for all discrete time values from t up to t+T, starting at the next discrete time value t+1, is limited to a minimum value of said momentary transmission power.Type: GrantFiled: May 29, 2019Date of Patent: April 30, 2024Assignee: TELEFONAKTIEBOLAGET LM ERICSSON (PUBL)Inventors: Torbjörn Wigren, Shiguang Guo

Patent number: 10420136Abstract: The embodiments herein provide a method and apparatus for scheduling users of a communication system, based on an advantageous pre-scheduling scheme. As a first scheduler process during a current scheduling interval, first users selected for scheduling in the current scheduling interval are regularly scheduled to thereby make radio resource reservations for the first users. As a second scheduler process during the current scheduling interval, second users not among the first users are identified as having scheduling deadlines falling in a subsequent scheduling interval. As a further operation of the second scheduler process, the second users for the subsequent scheduling interval are prescheduled to thereby make radio resource reservations in the subsequent scheduling interval for the second users. The second scheduling may be performed using processing resources that would otherwise be left idle by the first scheduler process during the current scheduling interval.Type: GrantFiled: February 2, 2015Date of Patent: September 17, 2019Assignee: Telefonaktiebolaget LM Ericsson (publ)Inventors: Shiguang Guo, Girum Alebachew Fantaye
