Abstract
A MIMO transmission point utilizes respective pluralities of beam weights to transmit corresponding pluralities of beams to each group of wireless devices, with respective numbers of resources being allocated for transmissions to each group of wireless devices. One method comprises: determining an average output power of the transmission point over a period of time in a first direction; comparing the average output power to an output power reference value; determining a fraction of a pool of available resources for the allocation of data to be transmitted by the transmission point as a function of the comparison; for each group of wireless devices, and determining beam gains in the first direction for each of the plurality of beams and weighting the number of resources allocated to the group of wireless devices according to the determined beam gains to obtain an effective number of resource blocks in the resources in the first direction.
