Abstract

A transmission node for use in a wireless communication network includes a first register for storing a set of first mask bits, a second register for storing a set of second mask bits, and a mask switching block for multiplexing the set of first mask bits and the set of second mask bits and outputting the set of third mask bits. The transmission node further includes a CPRI unit with an auxiliary interface for receiving the set of third mask bits. An activation block is connected between the CPRI unit and the mask switching block for causing the mask switching block to output the set of second mask bits based on data in a current frame in the CPRI unit.
