Abstract
In one aspect, a network node receives a message indicating that UEs that require service are expected to enter a service area of the network node. The network node determines, based on the message, that a change in power management for radio equipment corresponding to the service area is required. The network node determines a timing for initiating the change in power management for the radio equipment, taking into account a predicted time for when the UEs are expected to enter the service area, and triggers the change in power management for the radio equipment, based on the determined timing. In another aspect, the network node predicts a departure time from the first service area for the UEs. The network node then sends to another network node, prior to the predicted departure time, an indication that the UEs are expected to enter a service area of the other network node.
