Abstract
The present disclosure relates to a method of controlling allocation of mobile devices (12-23) to frequency bands in a radio site (10), and a device (11) performing the method. In an aspect, a method of a radio base station (11) of controlling allocation of mobile devices (12-23) to frequency bands in a radio site (10) is provided. The method comprises estimating (S101) power consumption of the radio base station (11) caused by radio traffic of the mobile devices (12-23) in each frequency band of the radio site (10), determining (S102) whether or not power consumption of the radio base station (11) is decreased by reallocating at least one of the mobile devices (12-23) from one frequency band to another frequency band, while not exceeding a power headroom limit of said another frequency band, and if so reallocating (S103) said at least one mobile device from said one frequency band to said another frequency band.
