Abstract
A method performed by a radio network node for determining a partitioning of a first signal into one or more parts to be transmitted to a first radio node. The radio network node comprises two or more antennas, each associated with a respective radio chain. The radio network node and the radio node operate in a wireless communications network. The radio network node determines a number of radio chains, to be used to send the first signal, and determines a partitioning of the first signal into the one or more parts of the first signal over the determined number of radio chains. The one or more parts are to be transmitted to the first radio node. The radio network node determines the number of radio chains and the partitioning based on a scheduling decision associated with the radio network node, and one or more parameters.

31. A method performed by a radio network node for determining a partitioning of a first signal into one or more parts to be transmitted to a first radio node, wherein the radio network node comprises two or more antennas, wherein each of the two or more antennas is associated with a respective radio chain out of two or more radio chains comprised in the radio network node, and wherein the radio network node and the first radio node are operating in a wireless communications network, the method comprising:
-
determining a number of radio chains out of the two or more radio chains, to be used to send the first signal to the first radio node; and determining a partitioning of the first signal into the one or more parts of the first signal over the determined number of radio chains, which one or more parts are to be transmitted to the first radio node; wherein the determining the number of radio chains and the determining the partitioning are based on a scheduling decision associated with the radio network node, and based on one or more parameters. - View Dependent Claims (32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 37, 38, 39, 40, 41, 42, 43, 44)

45. A non-transitory computer-readable medium comprising, stored thereupon, a computer program comprising instructions that, when executed on at least one processor of a radio network node operating in a wireless communications network and comprising two or more antennas, each of the two or more antennas being associated with a respective radio chain out of two or more radio chains in the radio network node, cause the at least one processor to determine a partitioning of a first signal into one or more parts to be transmitted to a first radio node by:
-
determining a number of radio chains out of the two or more radio chains, to be used to send the first signal to the first radio node; and determining a partitioning of the first signal into the one or more parts of the first signal over the determined number of radio chains, which one or more parts are to be transmitted to the first radio node; such that the determining the number of radio chains and the determining the partitioning are based on a scheduling decision associated with the radio network node, and based on one or more parameters.

46. A radio network node configured to determine a partitioning of a first signal into one or more parts to be transmitted to a first radio node, wherein the radio network node comprises two or more antennas, wherein each of the two or more antennas is associated with a respective radio chain out of two or more radio chains comprised in the radio network node, the radio network node and the first radio node being configured to operate in a wireless communications network, the radio network node comprising a processor and memory configured to:
-
determine a number of radio chains out of the two or more radio chains, to be used to send the first signal to the first radio node, and determine a partitioning of the first signal into the one or more parts of the first signal over the determined number of radio chains, which one or more parts are to be transmitted to the first radio node, wherein to determine the number of radio chains and to determine the partitioning are based on a scheduling decision associated with the radio network node, and one or more parameters. - View Dependent Claims (47, 48, 49, 50, 51, 52, 53, 54, 55, 56, 57, 58, 59)
