Abstract
It is presented a method for assisting downlink interference estimation in a cellular network. The method is performed in a network node of the cellular network and comprises the steps of: estimating an average transmit power of the network node in a future time period; transmitting a power parameter based on the estimated average transmit power to at least one wireless device being served by the network node; and transmitting a reference signal for downlink interference estimation. A corresponding network node, wireless device, computer programs and computer program products are also presented.
