Abstract: Methods and network devices estimate power of signals received from a user equipment in a sector of a cellular network cell using a data signal, which is not a predetermined reference signal. An exemplary method includes (1) saving a data signal received from the user equipment in a first sector of the cellular network cell, (2) acquiring a reference signal that corresponds to the data signal as received in a second sector of the cell and demodulated, and (3) comparing the saved data signal and the reference signal to estimate power of the data signal as received in the first sector.

Abstract: A network node (28) of a radio access network (20) comprises a scheduler (40) configured to provide an allocation of an uplink resource to an indoor wireless terminal (30) in communication over an air interface with the radio access network. The allocation of the network node is made in coordinated manner with resource allocation of another network node whereby any interference by reason of allocation of same uplink resource must be with another indoor wireless terminal served by the another network node. Preferably the another network node is a network node which serves a neighboring or adjacent cell.
