    摘要: Precoder weights employed at a base station which coordinates with other base stations to form a super-cell are determined by (a) determining an initial downlink preceding matrix at the base station for a mobile station serviced by the base station in the super-cell, (b) revising a downlink receiver matrix associated with the mobile station based on the initial downlink precoding matrix; (c) transforming the downlink receiver matrix to an uplink precoder matrix associated with the mobile station, (d) revising an uplink receiver matrix associated with each base station in uplink communication with the mobile station based on the uplink precoder matrix associated with the mobile station, and (e) revising the initial downlink preceding matrix by transforming the uplink receiver matrix to a revised downlink precoding matrix Steps (b), (c), (d) and (e) are repeated for a pellicular number of iterations to determine a final downlink preceding matrix for the mobile station.

    摘要: Techniques for reducing the number of bits needed to specify the best precoding vector for each mobile station in a wireless communication network that employs multi-point transmission are disclosed. An exemplary method begins with the estimation of path loss between a mobile station and each of a plurality of geographically separated transmitter sites, each transmitter site having at least one transmitter antenna. Based on the estimated path losses, one of a plurality of pre-determined subsets (codebooks) of a pre-determined set of antenna precoding vectors is selected. A group index identifying the selected subset is then transmitted to the mobile station. Subsequently, a vector index is received from the mobile station, the vector index corresponding to a precoding vector in the selected subset, and data is transmitted to the mobile station, using the precoding vector applied to the transmitter antennas at the plurality of transmitter sites.

    摘要: A wireless communication network employs a distributed antenna system to provide radio coverage. The wireless communication network comprises a plurality of access points providing service in respective coverage areas. The access point within each coverage area connects to a plurality of antennas that are widely distributed within the coverage area. Radio resources at antennas within the overlapping region of two or more neighboring coverage areas are shared by the access points in the neighboring coverage areas according to a multiple access scheme. The sharing of radio resources within the overlapping region of two or more coverage areas allows the overlapping region to be enlarged, thereby providing more time to complete a handover.

    摘要: In a Coordinated Multi-point (CoMP) system, the base station (BS) in each serving cell (or sector) is allowed to use not only its own antennas, but also the antennas of neighboring BSs to transmit to mobile terminals in the serving cell to form a floating CoMP cell. The serving BS in each floating CoMP cell computes tentative linear precoding weights for transmissions from the coordinating BSs in the floating CoMP cell to users in the serving cell of the floating CoMP cell. The serving BS determines the power availability for transmit antennas in the floating CoMP cell that are shared with other floating CoMP cells, and scales the tentative precoding weights based on the power availability of the shared transmit antennas to determine final precoding weights so that the power constraints of the shared transmit antennas will not be violated.

    摘要: Inter-CoMP cell interference is reduced by "extending" at least one CoMP cell to include UEs served by a neighboring CoMP ceil in the extended CoMP cell's transmission calculations, so as to minimize interference to the UEs served by other CoMP ceils. Each UE in a border sub-cell identifies neighboring CoMP cells from which it receives interference in excess of a threshold value, and includes the interfering CoMP cells in a close-neighbor set. The close-neighbor set is transmitted to the UE's serving CoMP cell controller. When downlink transmissions are scheduled to the target UE, the controller notifies the neighboring CoMP cells in the close-neighbor set, identifying the target UE, Those CoM P cells then use information about the channel conditions from their transmit antennas to the target UE receive antennas to compute transmissions to UEs they serve, with the constraint that interference to the target UE is below a predetermined level.

    摘要: One or more embodiments taught herein provide a hybrid access arrangement using a contention-based channel (40) and a scheduled channel (42) on a communication link (16). As a point of significant efficiency, given users (18) transmit autonomously on the contention-based channel (40), without need for scheduling overhead. However, if a contention overload occurs on the contention-based channel (40), the involved users are identified from unique signature sequences included in their user transmissions. The identified users are temporarily managed as scheduled users on the scheduled channel (42), which supplements the contention-based channel (40) and therefore may use limited communication link resources in comparison to the contention-based channel (40). Users not involved in the contention overload generally continue operating on the contention-based channel (40).
