The invention relates to an arrangement () in a radio base station () for handling data traffic within a cell of the radio base station (), which radio base station () is comprised in a telecommunications network. The arrangement comprises a determining unit () arranged to determine a maximum power, which maximum power indicates available power to radio base station (). In addition, the arrangement comprises a comparing unit () arranged to compare the maximum power to a threshold power value, and a handling unit () arranged to handle data traffic served by the radio base station () according to a shaper rule when the maximum power is below the first threshold power value. The shaper rule is defined to handle data traffic in such a way that an amount of data traffic transmitted over a time period is reduced consuming less power of the radio base station () than if the data traffic is handled according to a basic rule when the maximum power is above the threshold power value.

Method and a radio base station for handling of data traffic

A network reconfigurator () is provided for use in a telecommunications network () comprising a network () of radio base stations configured for providing radio access service to the telecommunications network for wireless stations (). The network reconfigurator is arranged or configured, for differing service outages attributable to differing downed radio base stations () of the network of radio base stations, to coordinately and dynamically change modifiable characteristics of plural remaining base stations for at least partially compensating for the service outages. Preferably the reconfigurator () is configured, for differing service outages, to dynamically change differing modifiable characteristics of differing plural remaining base stations for at least partially compensating for the service outages. Modifying a characteristic of the plural remaining base stations can include modification of one or more of the following: antenna tilt of at least one of the plural remaining base station; power of a downlink common control channel of at least one of the plural remaining base stations; composition of a neighbor list of at least one of the plural remaining base stations; a parameter pertaining to one of handover, cell power, and cell size for the at least one of the plural remaining base stations.
