Abstract:
A network node and a wireless device for operation in a wireless communication network, wherein it is determined that a second scheduling bandwidth is needed, based on an amount or type of data buffered for transmission to the wireless device. Reconfiguration of a receiver bandwidth of the wireless device is initiated to match the second scheduling bandwidth, wherein the second scheduling bandwidth is larger than a first scheduling bandwidth currently associated with the wireless device, and wherein the first and second scheduling bandwidths respectively define the bandwidth used for scheduling transmissions to the wireless device. Methods and computer programs therefor are also disclosed.
