The present invention relates to radio resource management in a wireless
communication system. Specifically, the present invention relates to a
method and apparatus for obtaining downlink power information for a
multi-sector base transceiver site in which power can be shared between
the sectors. Such information can be used in radio resource management in
a wireless communication system. Power requirement measurement
information gathered at a base transceiver station is modified prior to
being provided to a radio resource management unit. This enables more
effective use of power resources at a base transceiver site.
