A method can include determining a power headroom report, and transmitting the headroom report. The power headroom report can provide both positive and negative values of power headroom according to the determination, in which negative values indicate the missing power in dB to fulfill requirements, such as those given by current resource allocation and modulation and coding scheme. This method can be implemented by encoding instructions for performing this method on a computer-readable medium, such that the instructions when execute cause the computer to execute the method as a computer process. The method can further include receiving a power headroom report. The method can additionally include allocating radio network resources based on the power headroom report.

Resources which are to be related to a first interface between a terminal and a first network node and to a second interface between the first network node and a second network node are jointly determined during the allocation of radio technical resources for data transmission for a subscriber. Throughput and transmission characteristics of the first interface requested by a subscriber are taken into account and coherence of the resources which are to be allocated to the first interface and the resources which are to be allocated to the second interface is taken into account. Allocations of other subscribers are considered and the value to all subscribers is optimized.
