摘要:
There is provided a method of determining latency in a remote network element of a telecommunications network. In one embodiment, the method comprises receiving a message at a network element, the message comprising a time stamp of the time at which it was sent from a source network element. On receiving the message, the network element obtains another time stamp, and so may determine the time for the message to be sent between the network elements. In further embodiments, a source network element may gain an implicit indication of the workload of the remote network element by sending a first message to the remote network element and determining a length of time before the remote network element sends a second message back to the source network element.

The exemplary embodiments of the present invention relate to methods and apparatuses (800, 900) for facilitating reduction of interference in a network. According to exemplary embodiments, an apparatus acting as a first radio base station (macro or femto) (800, 900) is configured to acquire information including a scheduling scheme indicating information on how radio resources are allocated in second radio base station (femto or macro). The information is then used by a scheduler to allocate radio resources which are disjoint the radio resources already allocated by the scheduler of second radio base station.
摘要:
Embodiments of the present invention provide a method for determining throughput and data loss between a first network element of a telecommunications network and a second network element of that network. The first and second network elements may include, but are not limited to, a radio base station, a SAE-GW, an RNC, an SGSN or a GGSN, depending on the type of telecommunications network in which the method is employed. Data is exchanged between the first and second network elements in a manner that enables each of the first and second network elements to determine a true value of throughput and/or data loss for a communication link between the first and second network elements.
