摘要:
Embodiments of an enhanced Node B (e NB) configured for use in a cooperative radio access networks (C-RAN) and method for central baseband unit (BBU) processing are generally described herein. In some embodiments, the eNB may include a baseband unit (BBU) processing pool comprising a plurality of processing units. The BBU processing pool is configured to share the processing load of several sectors. A control unit may monitor the processing load of the processing units and perform dynamic load sharing by migrating the baseband processing between the processing units without changing a carrier used by user equipment operating with a sector.

Various strategies and devices are disclosed to correct frequency offset (such as due to differing accuracies between an oscillator of a transmitting device and an oscillator of a receiving device) and Doppler shift (such as due to a changing relative position between a receiving device and a transmitting device). These strategies may be employed in a MIMO setting, such as, e.g. a stationary base station and a plurality of terminal devices (e.g. user devices, mobile stations, etc.), in which the transmissions for each terminal device may be associated with a different frequency offset and a different Doppler shift.

A system and methods for estimating a noise power level in an uplink signal for a virtual MIMO system is disclosed. The system comprises a demodulation reference signal (DMRS) module configured to obtain a DMRS receive symbol from the uplink signal and determine a DMRS sequence for a first UE in the virtual MIMO system. An autocorrelation module is configured to calculate an average autocorrelation value for the subcarriers in the uplink signal. A cross-correlation module is configured to calculate first and second cross-correlation values of the uplink signal R z ( l ) for values of l selected such that the sum of the received power from the first UE and the second UE can be accurately estimated. A noise power level module is configured to determine the noise power level for the uplink signal using the average autocorrelation value and the first and second cross correlation values.

A front-end unit that operates within a C-RAN architecture to perform the functions of cellular signal processing and resource selection between an RRU and the BBU pool network is described. The front-end unit supports flexible load migration and CoMP (coordinated multipoint) in the CRAN BBU while also reducing data transmission within the BBU pool network or between the BBU pool network and the RRU.
