Original Abstract Submitted

embodiments provide methods and systems for allocation of ues in communication networks. the method comprises analysing the power consumption of the one or more access nodes, and determining, for a ue, whether the net power consumption of the communications network would be reduced if the allocation of the ue was changed. the method further comprises, if it is determined that the net power consumption of the communications network would be reduced if the allocation of the ue was changed, changing the ue allocation. the method further comprises, if it is determined that the net power consumption of the communications network would not be reduced if the allocation of the ue was changed, retaining the current ue allocation.
