Abstract

The present invention discloses a method for configuring an operation mode of a remote transceiver unit connected to an access node via a communication line, the remote transceiver unit being operable in at least two operation modes: a Time Division Duplex, TDD, mode and a full duplex, FDX, mode; the method comprising, by the access node: a) obtaining a channel characteristic derived from channel measurements performed over the communication line, b) determining the operation mode of the remote transceiver unit as the FDX mode or the TDD mode based on the channel characteristic; c) transmitting an indication indicating the determined operation mode to the remote transceiver unit.
