Abstract:
1. A method of managing radio resources between serving uplink channels from first user equipments (UEs) for which a Node B is a serving Node B and non-serving uplink channels from second UEs 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 the non-serving uplink channels, and a target 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 commanding the second UEs to decrease data rate of the non-serving uplink channels, 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.
