Efficient rise over thermal (RoT) control during soft handover

A method for communicating information relating to transmission scheduling of uplink data, where a mobile terminal transmits data on the uplink to a plurality of base stations during soft handover of the mobile terminal in a mobile communication system, and where the least one base station of said plurality of base stations schedules data transmissions of uplink mobile terminal in soft handover stations, the method including the steps of: determining at the at least one scheduling base station of said plurality of base stations scheduling information indicative a maximum amount of uplink resources allocated to the mobile terminal, inform at least another base station of said plurality of base stations on the maximum allocated amount of uplink resources and schedule for at least another base station at least one other terminal Mobile communication with a base station the maximum amount indicated respectivausando of uplink resources allocated to said mobile terminal in soft handover.
