A method and system for detecting PIM signals in a wireless communication base station are disclosed. According to one aspect, a method includes receiving radio frequency, RF, signals over a frequency band spanning a plurality of frequencies of signals transmitted by at least a first transmitter external to the base station and at least a second transmitter. The method includes determining frequencies at which signals are present among the received radio frequency signals. PIM signal frequencies are calculated based on the determined frequencies at which signals are present. The method includes determining whether the calculated PIM signal frequencies interfere with selected uplink channels.

A method and system for prioritized baseband processing in a wireless communication network is disclosed. Parameters affecting processing times for performing tasks associated with different user equipments are evaluated and the tasks are prioritized based on the evaluation. Each task is performed by the baseband processor at a time that is based on the priority assigned to the task.

Method and system for wireless communication baseband processing

Embodiments herein include a method of controlling the total power with which a radio transmitter of a radio access node transmits a signal. The method entails inputting an input signal into a power amplifier of the radio transmitter to produce, as a function of the input signal, an output signal to be transmitted by the radio transmitter. The method further entails generating a feedback signal from the output signal at the radio transmitter, and measuring that feedback signal to obtain one or more performance metrics that characterize performance of the output signal. The method finally includes comparing the one or more performance metrics to one or more performance metric thresholds, and controlling a maximum permissible level of the total power of the input signal, based on that comparison.
