Abstract
An apparatus for use by a communication network control element or function configured to conduct a radio resource management, the apparatus being configured to cause the apparatus at least: to acquire input parameters; to process the input parameters by using a first-stage procedure for maximizing a weighted sum-rate for a fixed subcarrier allocation for all subcarriers, and a second-stage procedure for determining a power allocation for a single subcarrier under consideration of specified multiplexing and interference cancellation constraints wherein a processing result output from the first-stage procedure is input into the second-stage procedure, and a processing result output from the second-stage procedure is returned to the first-stage procedure; and to output, on the basis of results of the processing in the first-stage procedure and the second-stage procedure, a power setting for at least one subcarrier.
