Abstract
Embodiments herein relate to a method performed by a radio unit (101) for controlling power levels of spatially separated transceivers (110-119) connected to the radio unit (101) via corresponding antenna ports (a-j). Each transceiver (110-119) is capable of performing measurements on uplink transmissions from wireless devices in a wireless communication network (100). The radio unit (101) receives, from each transceiver (110-119), measurements on uplink transmissions from wireless devices. Then, the radio unit (101) determines, for each transceiver (110-119), a load based on how many wireless devices that have the transceiver as the transceiver with the most relevant measurement for its uplink transmissions. The radio unit (101) also controls a power level of at least one first transceiver (110) based on at least one of the determined loads for the transceivers (110-119). Embodiments of the radio unit (101) are also described.
