Abstract:
A method and a system for measuring Layer 2 (L2) load conditions in a wireless network environment are provided. The method of an evolved Node B (eNB) for measuring L2 load conditions in a wireless network environment includes determining total number of Physical Resource Blocks (PRBs) allocated to the eNB in uplink and downlink and determining number of PRBs which are unavailable in uplink and downlink. The method further includes computing number of PRBs available for use during a time period by subtracting the number of unavailable PRBs from the number of allocated PRBs. Moreover, the method includes reporting the number of PRBs available for use during a time period to an Operation And Maintenance (OAM) entity in the wireless network environment.
