METHOD, WIRELESS COMMUNICATION DEVICE AND RADIO NODE FOR DOWNLINK POWER ALLOCATION WHEN NARROWBAND SYSTEM IS DEPLOYED WITHIN A WIDEBAND SYSTEM

摘要

A wireless communication device (12, 700) receives from a radio node (10, 500, 600) one or more parameter values indicating power allocated to one or more radio signals of a wideband transmission (14). The wideband transmission (14) operates in a wideband operating bandwidth (16). The wireless communication device (12, 700) also receives from the radio node (10, 500, 600) information about at least one of: (i) a first portion (24) of radio resources, within the wideband operating bandwidth (16), on which power indicated by the one or more parameter values is allocated; and (ii) a second portion (26) of radio resources, within the wideband operating bandwidth (16), on which power indicated by the one or more parameter values is not allocated and on which a narrowband transmission (20) is transmitted. The wireless communication device (12, 700) also performs one or more radio operations based on the one or more parameter values and the received information.
