Abstract: A method for scheduling a plurality of network entities of a network for transmissions. The method includes determining a handling capacity of a processing device, the handling capacity relating to a maximum number of network entities which the processing device can handle during a given period of time and determining a network entity schedule for transmission in uplink and downlink based on the handling capacity of the processing device by scheduling a first set of network entities of the plurality of network entities to transmit in uplink and downlink in a transmission block according to a first transmission pattern. A second set of network entities is scheduled to transmit in the transmission block in uplink and downlink according to a second transmission pattern, the first transmission pattern differs from the second transmission pattern and the first and second transmission patterns conform to the handling capacity of the processing device.

Abstract: A method is disclosed for controlling execution in a parallel processing device of a plurality of processing jobs for communication reception in a communication network. The method includes grouping the plurality of processing jobs into one or more groups, wherein the number of groups is less than the number of processing jobs of the plurality of processing jobs. The method also includes launching, for each group, processing of the processing jobs of the group using a single execution call, wherein the processing includes parallel processing of at least some of the processing jobs of the group. For example, the processing jobs may be layer one (L1) baseband (BB) processing jobs. In some embodiments, the groups are non-overlapping. In some embodiments, at least one of the one or more groups includes two or more processing jobs. Corresponding apparatus, communication node and a computer storage medium are also disclosed.

Abstract: Embodiments herein relate to a method performed by a wireless device (10) for managing communication in a wireless communication network. The wireless device receives reference signals from one or more radio network nodes. The wireless device (10) estimates to what extent the received reference signals are received spatially diversified based on a radio network node indication indicating from which radio network node the reference signal was sent, and/or on a beam indication indicating in what direction the reference signal was sent toward the wireless device. The wireless device (10) then generates a measurement report by adding selected reference signals into the measurement report, which reference signals are selected for simultaneous multiple transmissions of data to the wireless device (10) taking into account the estimated extent that the received reference signals are received spatially diversified.

Abstract: A method performed by a wireless communication device for reporting signal quality measurements.
