Abstract
Embodiments described herein relate to methods and apparatus for transmitting radio data over a fronthaul network. The method comprises receiving radio data for transmission over the fronthaul network; and translating the radio data between a time domain multiplexing protocol and packet based protocol before transmitting the data over the fronthaul network; wherein the step of translating comprises: receiving control information indicative of a level of congestion over a part of the radio network using the packet based protocol; and modifying the radio data during the step of translating to control the level of congestion.
