The disclosure relates to a method and radio base station for sharing resources in a wireless communication system. The radio base station stores an identity of a first entity to which a first plurality of UEs is associated. The first plurality of UEs has full access to resources provided by the radio base station. The radio base station also stores an identity of a second entity to which a second plurality of UEs is associated. The second plurality of UEs has partial access to the resources provided by the radio base station. When the radio base station receives a request for accessing resources from a UE, it determines whether the UE is associated with the second entity, i.e. if the UE is to be handled in support mode. If the UE is associated with the second entity it means that the UE only should have partial access to the resources.
A method in a first radio base station, RBS, for sharing resources between at least two entities, the first RBS provides resources to user equipments, UEs, in a cell, comprising storing an identity of at least a first entity to which a first plurality of UEs is associated, which first plurality of UEs has full access to the resources, and an identity of at least a second entity to which a second plurality of UEs is associated, which second plurality of UEs has partial access to the resources, the method comprising:
A radio base station, RBS, for sharing resources between at least two entities, the RBS is configured to provide resources to user equipments, UEs, in a cell and configured to store in a storage unit an identity of at least a first entity to which a first plurality of UEs is associated, which first plurality of UEs has full access to the resources, and an identity of at least a second entity to which a second plurality of UEs is associated, which second plurality of UEs has partial access to the resources, the RBS comprises
