Abstract

There is provided mechanisms for reshaping individual beams of a beam pattern. A method is performed by a control node. The method comprises determining the beam pattern by distributing available transmission energy in individual beams according to a weighted combination of the individual beams. Different weights are applied for at least two of the individual beams. The weighted combination of individual beams is based on radio propagation channel properties. The method comprises truncating transmission energy of the individual beam with highest transmission energy in the beam pattern to not be over a threshold. The method comprises redistributing the truncated transmission energy among the remaining individual beams in the beam pattern, thereby reshaping the individual beams of the beam pattern.
