Methods and apparatuses for communication between a radio equipment and a radio equipment controller are disclosed. According to an embodiment, a first transport equipment detects a bit rate of one of a radio equipment and a radio equipment controller. The one of the radio equipment and the radio equipment controller is connected with the first transport equipment through a first common public radio interface (CPRI) link. The first transport equipment locks a working bit rate of a first CPRI port of the first transport equipment to the detected bit rate. The first transport equipment generates a message indicating the detected bit rate and sends the message to a second transport equipment that is connected with the other of the radio equipment and the radio equipment controller through a second CPRI link.

Methods and apparatuses for communication between radio equipment and radio equipment controller

A method for energy saving in a communication network is provided. The method is implemented by a first network device in a communication network. The first network device may be communicatively connected to a second network device by a FlexE group. The method may comprise measuring a traffic rate of one or more FlexE clients carried over the FlexE group, and determining whether one or more PHYs of the FlexE group is to be shut down or activated based on the measured traffic rate and a first shutdown threshold or a first activation threshold.
