Abstract
A user equipment (UE) in a mobile communications system is operated in a manner that alleviates or avoids an overload condition in the UE. This involves operating a receiver of the UE to receive one or more data blocks via a channel. In response to a user equipment overload condition being detected, a channel quality indicator (CQI) value is reported to a serving base station, wherein the reported CQI value represents a channel quality that is lower than an actual quality of the channel. The UE is then operated in a manner that is consistent with the reported CQI value. UE overload conditions include overheating, and an inability to process received data blocks at the rate at which they are being received.
