  • Publication number: 20240430738
    Abstract: Embodiments herein disclose, e.g., a method performed by a network node, in a wireless communications network, for charging a rechargeable power source in the network node. The network node obtains an operational parameter to an operation of the network node, wherein the operational parameter is based on an output of a computational model. The computational model is based on a state of charge of the rechargeable power source, a parameter related to outage of a power grid, and a QoS parameter relating to radio communication in the wireless communications network. The network node further applies, during a charging of the rechargeable power source, the operational parameter to the operation of the network node.
