Abstract

A method and a radio network node for managing a request for a radio access bearer. The radio network node determines a first value relating to utilization of radio resources in a first set of subframes. The first set of subframes includes a second set of subframes, dedicated for transmission by the radio network node to multiple radio communication devices, and a third set of subframes. The radio network node determines a second value relating to utilization of radio resources in the third set of subframes. The radio network node receives the request and obtains an indication relating to a capability of a radio communication device to receive transmission in one or more of the second set of subframes. The radio network node determines a response to the request based on the first value, the second value and the indication, and sends the response to the network node.
