Method Performed by a Radio Network Node for Determining a Changed Bandwidth Interval - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18017521 titled 'Method Performed by a Radio Network Node for Determining a Changed Bandwidth Interval

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a method performed by a radio network node in a wireless communication network to handle communication over a bandwidth interval for one or more user equipment (UEs).

  • The radio network node determines whether to change the currently used bandwidth interval based on the current state of resource usage and the positions of the UEs being served.
  • If it is determined to change the bandwidth interval, the radio network node calculates a new bandwidth interval to use.
  • The radio network node adjusts the currently used bandwidth interval to the calculated one and uses it for communication with the UEs.
  • The method aims to optimize the allocation of bandwidth resources based on the number of UEs served and their positions.


Original Abstract Submitted

Embodiments herein may relate to a method performed by a radio network node for handling communication over a bandwidth interval for one or more UEs, in a wireless communication network. The radio network node determines to change a currently used bandwidth interval based on a current state of usage of resources in the 5 currently used bandwidth interval related to number of UEs served and/or a current state of positions of the number of UEs served. With the proviso that it is determined to change the currently used bandwidth interval, the radio network node calculates a changed bandwidth interval to use. The radio network node then adjusts the currently used bandwidth interval to the calculated bandwidth interval; and uses the adjusted 10 bandwidth interval for communicating with the one or more UEs.
