A method and an apparatus for managing a menu item in a portable terminal are provided. In the method, at least one item is selected from items displayed on a screen according to a user control. An attribute of selected at least one item is determined. A new item is generated by one of dividing and merging the at least one item depending on the determined attribute.

A method terminal includes an apparatus for automatically adjusting volume in the terminal. An automatic volume adjuster extracts a representative volume from individual frame information of an audio file, and adjusts a master volume by a deviation between the extracted representative volume and a reference volume, and a controller plays the audio file with the master volume adjusted by the automatic volume adjuster.

A method of scheduling a subband is provided. The method includes determining whether the eNodeB is in an overload state according to a used amount of a first radio resource of the eNodeB, receiving information on a used amount of a second radio source of at least one neighbor eNodeB from the at least one neighbor eNodeB, determining whether the at least one neighbor eNodeB is in the overload state, setting a number of total subbands to be used for a subband scheduling to a number lower than a number of total subbands used by the at least one neighbor eNodeB, setting a subband scheduling start order such that the subband scheduling is started from a subband having a farthest distance in frequency from at least one subband used by the at least one neighbor eNodeB from among the set number of subbands, and performing the subband scheduling.

Method and apparatus for subband scheduling in wireless communication system

A wireless communication system includes an apparatus capable of detecting whether a cell coverage is downscaled. The wireless communication system receives information used for communication between an evolved NodeB (eNodeB) and a User Equipment (UE) from the eNodeB. The UE performs at least one of pilot signal power checking for checking if a pilot signal power falls within a first reference range, DownLink (DL) Signal-to-Interference plus Noise Ratio (SINR) checking for checking if an SINR of a DL traffic channel falls within a second reference range, and UpLink (UL) SINR checking for checking if an SINR of an UL traffic channel falls within a third reference range using the received information. The UE also detects whether a cell coverage of a cell to which the eNodeB and the UE belongs is downscaled based on a checking result.
