Method for scheduling and/or muting of radio resources in a wireless communication system

A method in a user node among a plurality of user nodes arranged for communication in a wireless communication system, said wireless communication system comprising a plurality of network nodes and the plurality of user nodes, the method comprising:

• measuring received signal strength of radio signals transmitted from the plurality of network nodes to obtain received signal quality and/or interference associated with the plurality of network nodes;
• arranging the received signal quality and/or interference associated with the plurality of network nodes in a first order with respect to a radio signal criterion;
• and
• signalling order indicator information indicating the first order of the received signal quality and/or interference in a first message to a first network node among the plurality of network nodes, to cause the first network node coordinate schedules and/or mutes of radio resources for the first network node based on a combination of the order indicator information indicating the first order of the signal quality and/or interference associated with the plurality of network nodes in the first message from the user node, and a second order, by the first network, of schedules and/or mutes of radio resources,
• wherein the first message to cause the first network node to coordinate the scheduling and/or the muting of radio resources further includes information from a group of information including:
• a list of a plurality of network nodes in the first order being a descending or ascending order with respect to the radio signal criterion;
• and
• an indication of interference level in the first order associated in a list of a plurality of transmission beam(s) and/or a plurality of network nodes.

A user node device among a plurality of user node devices arranged for communication in a wireless communication system, said wireless communication system comprising a plurality of network nodes and the plurality of user nodes, said user node device comprising a processor to:

• measure received signal strength of radio signals transmitted from the plurality of network nodes to obtain received signal quality and/or interference associated with the plurality of network nodes;
• arrange the received signal quality and/or interference associated with the plurality of network nodes in a first order with respect to a radio signal criterion;
• and
• signal order indicator information indicating the first order of the received signal quality and/or interference in a first message to a first network node among the plurality of network nodes to control the first network node, to cause the first network node coordinate schedules and mutes of radio resources for the first network node based on a combination of the order indicator information indicating the first order of the signal quality and/or interference associated with the plurality of network nodes in the first message from the user node, and a second order, by the first network, of schedules and/or mutes of radio resources,
• wherein the first message to cause the first network node to coordinate the scheduling and/or the muting of radio resources further includes information from a group of information including:
• a list of a plurality of network nodes in the first order being a descending or ascending order with respect to the radio signal criterion;
• and
• an indication of interference level in the first order associated in a list of a plurality of transmission beam(s) and/or a plurality of network nodes.
