Abstract

A serving RNC signals the load contribution of all mobiles for which it is the serving RNC to all cells controlled by another RNC that are affected by the uplink transmissions of those mobiles. This allows the other RNC to determine the contribution of those mobiles to the total uplink interference in its cells. In one example, the uplink load maybe estimated using mobile-based path gain measurements.
