Abstract

According to an embodiment there is provided a method of radio resource allocation performed in a gateway or network server communicatively connected to a plurality of wireless nodes. The method comprises computing, for each spreading factor out of a number of spreading factors, a probability of successful receipt of an uplink communication from a wireless node from the plurality of wireless nodes based on spreading factor settings of the plurality of wireless nodes, determining, for a given link level budget, a spreading factor that provides a maximum likelihood of successfully completing uplink communications and determining, for the determined spreading factor, a transmission power that provides the given link level budget.
