Radio network node, and method performed therein

A radio network node for handling communication in a wireless communication network, the radio network node comprising processing circuitry, the processing circuitry being configured to cause the radio network node to:

• dynamically apply different muting patterns for muting an active component of one or both of one or more antenna branches of the radio network node and of one or more antenna panels of the radio network node, the different muting patterns being associated with one or both of one or more types of physical channels used for communicating and a communication parameter related to one or more user equipments, UE, and a respective muting pattern of the different muting patterns being associated with a respective type of physical channel, and the different muting patterns being associated with different physical channels in a same slot or symbol;
• and
• perform a communication using the dynamically applied different muting patterns.

A non-transitory computer storage medium storing a computer program comprising instructions, which, when executed on at least one processor, cause the at least one processor to perform a method, the method comprising:

• dynamically applying different muting patterns for muting an active component of one of both of one or more antenna branches of a radio network node and of one or more antenna panels of the radio network node, the different muting patterns being associated with one or both of one or more types of physical channels used for communicating and a communication parameter related to one or more user equipments, UEs, a respective muting pattern of the different muting patterns being associated with a respective type of physical channel, and the different muting patterns being associated with different physical channels in a same slot or symbol;
• and
• performing a communication using the dynamically applied different muting patterns.
