Abstract

The present invention relates to radio base stations including a standardized interface CPRI between a Radio Equipment (RE) and a Radio Equipment Controller (REC). The present invention also relates to a method. The problem addressed is how to convey calibration information from the RE to the REC, when the capacity is occupied by radio IQ samples. The solution is to suppress the IQ samples to get capacity for the calibration information. Various embodiments of the invention focus on reducing the negative impact the suppression of IQ data may have on detecting the signals received.
