METHOD FOR MANAGING AVAILABLE COMMUNICATION RESOURCE IN A COMMUNICATION NETWORK VIA NODE-TO-NODE RESOURCE-TRADING AND NODE FOR A COMMUNICATION NETWORK

摘要

A method is described for managing available communication resource in a communication network comprising nodes (100, 200). Each node comprises a resource management (RM100, RM200) exclusively authorized for managing a part of the communication resource. The method comprises using two of the nodes (100, 200) for agreeing on a compensation and temporarily transferring, from one to the other of the two nodes (100, 200) and during a time interval, authority for managing at least a surplus portion of the managed part of the one node (100, 200) in exchange for the compensation. The communication resource comprises at least one of: frequencies, code books, beamforming vectors, channel inversion matrices, interleavers and decoding strategies.
