Abstract

A method and system provides for adapting a computational load in a partly centralized radio access network. A computational load of computational elements of a central processor is measured or estimated, which central processor communicates with a plurality of radio access points and user equipment in the partly centralized radio access network. It is determined, by the central processor, whether the computational load should be reduced or increased. The computational load is adjusted by changing at least one of a modulation and coding scheme of the user equipment or an uplink power.
