Abstract
The invention relates to an arrangement (130) in a radio base station (10) for handling data traffic within a cell of the radio base station (10), which radio base station (10) is comprised in a telecommunications network. The arrangement comprises a determining unit (131) arranged to determine a maximum power, which maximum power indicates available power to radio base station (10). In addition, the arrangement comprises a comparing unit (132) arranged to compare the maximum power to a threshold power value, and a handling unit (133) arranged to handle data traffic served by the radio base station (10) according to a shaper rule when the maximum power is below the first threshold power value. The shaper rule is defined to handle data traffic in such a way that an amount of data traffic transmitted over a time period is reduced consuming less power of the radio base station (10) than if the data traffic is handled according to a basic rule when the maximum power is above the threshold power value.

14. A method in a radio base station for handling data traffic within a cell of the radio base station, wherein the radio base station is included in a telecommunications network and the method comprises:
-
determining a maximum power, indicating an available power to radio base station; comparing the maximum power to a threshold power value; and handling data traffic served by the radio base station according to a shaper rule when the maximum power is below the threshold power value, which shaper rule is defined to handle data traffic so that an amount of data traffic transmitted over a time period is reduced, thereby consuming less power of the radio base station than would have been consumed if the data traffic were handled according to a basic rule used when the maximum power is above the threshold power value. - View Dependent Claims (15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24)

25. An arrangement that is configured for handling data traffic within a cell of a radio base station operating in a telecommunications network, said arrangement comprising:
-
a determining unit configured to determine a maximum power that indicates available power to radio base station; a comparing unit arranged to compare the maximum power to a threshold power value; and a handling unit arranged to handle data traffic served by the radio base station according to a shaper rule when the maximum power is below the first threshold power value, wherein the shaper rule is defined to handle data traffic so that an amount of data traffic transmitted over a time period is reduced, thereby consuming less power at the radio base station than would have been consumed if the data traffic were handled according to a basic rule that is used by the radio base station for handling data traffic when the maximum power is above the threshold power value. - View Dependent Claims (26)
