Abstract
It is presented a method for determining a position of a wireless device, the method being performed in a network node connected to a plurality of remote radio heads via a combiner. The method comprises the steps of: adjusting a weighting of an uplink signal for at least one of the remote radio heads; measuring a signal quality of a combined uplink signal received via the combiner; repeating the steps of adjusting and measuring until an exit condition is true; and determining a position of the wireless device based on how the measured signal quality differs for adjustments of weighting of the uplink signal for different remote radio heads.
Claims24
A method performed in a wireless communication network, the method comprising:
- obtaining an accumulated uplink interference for a time period, Ti, over a frequency spectrum associated with an uplink communication channel of the wireless communication network;
- and
- dividing the frequency spectrum into at least a first and a second range based on characteristics of the obtained accumulated interference;
- and
- applying different rules for allocation of resources to wireless devices for uplink communication in the channel in the first and second range.
