Abstract
Embodiments herein relate to a method in a radio base station () for scheduling a radio resource to a first user equipment (). The radio base station () is comprised in a radio communications network and controls a number of radio resources to be scheduled for communication to a number of user equipments (). The number of user equipments comprises the first user equipment () and being served by the radio base station (). The scheduling is based on channel quality of channels used by the respective user equipments. The radio base station () estimates a first channel quality of a channel used by the first user equipment (). The radio base station determines a pathloss between the first user equipment () and the radio base station (), and computes a second channel quality of the channel based on the estimated first channel quality and the determined pathloss. The radio base station () then schedules a radio resource out of the number of radio resources to the first user equipment () based on the second channel quality.
