Abstract
A baseband processing unit (BPU) and method therein for segmenting data to be transferred into data packets and transferring data packets to a radio processing unit via a communication link. The BPU selects a certain amount of data among the data to be transferred and obtain a packet loss pattern of the communication link based on the current load and user scenario. The BPU segments the data to be transferred into data packets based on the packet loss pattern of the communication link such that the selected data are distributed to data packets to be transferred in a packet region where packet loss rate is lower than a packet loss threshold and transfers the data packets to the radio processing unit.
Claims15
A method performed in a baseband processing unit (BPU) for segmenting data to be transferred into data packets and transferring data packets to a radio processing unit via a communication link, the method comprising:
- obtaining power level per beam for beamforming weights data;
- sorting the beamforming weights data based on at least the beam power;
- based at least on beam power level, selecting a certain amount of the beamforming weights data among the data to be transferred;
- obtaining a packet loss pattern of the communication link based on the current load and user scenario;
- segmenting the data to be transferred into data packets based on the packet loss pattern of the communication link such that the selected beamforming weights data are distributed to data packets to be transferred in a packet region where packet loss rate is lower than a packet loss threshold;
- and
- transferring the data packets to the radio processing unit.
A network node comprising a baseband processing unit (BPU) for segmenting data to be transferred into data packets and transferring data packets to a radio processing unit via a communication link, the comprising:
- a memory:
- a processor in communication with the memory, the processor configured to:
- obtain power level per beam for beamforming weights data;
- sort the beamforming weights data based on at least the beam power;
- based at least on beam power level, select a certain amount of the beamforming weights data among the data to be transferred;
- obtain a packet loss pattern of the communication link based on the current load and user scenario;
- segment the data to be transferred into data packets based on the packet loss pattern of the communication link such that the selected beamforming weights data are distributed to data packets to be transferred in a packet region where packet loss rate is lower than a packet loss threshold;
- and
- transfer the data packets to the radio processing unit.
