Abstract:
1. A method of managing radio resources between a serving uplink channel from first user equipments (UEs) for which a Node B is a serving Node B and a non-serving uplink channel from second UE for which the Node B is a non-serving Node B in a mobile communication system for transmitting packet data on an enhanced uplink, comprising: receiving from a radio network controller (RNC) by the Node B a target total power level and a target power ratio of a power level of the non-serving uplink channel and a total power level on the enhanced uplink; comparing the target total power level with a current total power level by the Node B; comparing the target power ratio with a current power ratio by the Node B; and transmitting information representative of decreasing data rate of the non-serving uplink channel to the second UE, if the current power ratio is higher than the target power ratio and the current total power level is higher than the target total power level by the Node B.
