Abstract
A method and apparatus is described herein for controlling the operating temperature of radio equipment () in a radio base station () while preventing a decrease in power of a common channel. A radio base station () according to the present invention includes a radio unit () and a control unit (). The radio unit () determines a temperature of the radio unit (), e.g., by determining a temperature of high power radio equipment () in the radio unit (). The control unit () allocates a desired power to the common channel, determines an available power for dedicated and/or shared channels based on the allocated power for the common channel and a power limit derived from the determined temperature, and allocates the available power to the dedicated and/or shared channels.
