Abstract

A donor radio base station and relay node for configuring information associated with radio bearers in a radio communications network. The donor radio base station controls the relay node, which serves a cell and controls a number of first radio bearers over a first radio interface between the relay node and at least one user equipment served in the cell. The donor radio base station further controls a number of second radio bearers over a second radio interface between the donor radio base station and the relay node. The donor radio base station receives characteristic information indicating a characteristic of the relay node, and configures bearer information associated with at least one of the first radio bearers or the second radio bearers based on the indicated characteristic in the received characteristic information. The configured bearer information is utilized in the radio communications network during operation.
