Abstract

There is provided a method for determining radio resource usage. The method is performed by a network node. The method comprises associating a bearer of a terminal device with a target bitrate. The method comprises estimating a spectral efficiency of the bearer. The method comprises acquiring a maximum radio resource usage. The method comprises determining radio resource usage of the bearer based on the target bitrate, the maximum radio resource usage, and the estimated spectral efficiency. A corresponding network node and a corresponding computer program are also provided.
