Abstract:
A method of providing an increase of communication capacity in a communications system is disclosed. The method is performed in a network device and comprises: establishing a need for a communication capacity increase in a first coverage area C1, directing an unmanned aerial vehicle comprising an access node towards the first coverage area C1, and providing communication resources by the access node of the unmanned aerial vehicle to meet the communication capacity increase in a first coverage area C1. A method in an unmanned aerial vehicle, a network device, unmanned aerial vehicle, computer programs and computer program products are also provided.
