摘要:
Devices, systems and methods for mitigating the interference introduced by mobile relay nodes in a heterogeneous network are described. The techniques described apply fractional frequency reuse and power controlled beamforming to mitigate such interference.
摘要:
Idle mobile devices are used as cooperating devices to support coordinated multipoint transmission and reception for uplink and downlink communications between a primary mobile device and its serving base station. For uplink communications, the cooperating mobile devices receive the uplink transmission from the primary mobile device and retransmit the received data signal to the serving base station for the primary mobile device. For downlink communications, the cooperating mobile devices receive the downlink transmission from the serving base station and retransmit the received data signal to the primary mobile device.
摘要:
Presented is an apparatus and methods for determining if a determined systematic imbalance difference between a serving base station and one or more candidate base stations exceeds a threshold value and, if so, then using uplink information as part of a handover mechanism. The selective usage of uplink information in the handover mechanism can improve handover performance without unduly adding to complexity and signaling overhead.
摘要:
Systems and methods are disclosed for controlling cell selection between a high power base station and a neighboring low power base station in a cellular network. In one embodiment, a primary direction of traffic flow for a user equipment located within a transition zone between a high power base station cell of the high power base station and a low power base station cell of the low power base station is determined to be either an uplink direction or a downlink direction. Cell selection for the user equipment is then controlled based on the primary direction of traffic flow for the user equipment such that selection of the high power base station cell is favored if the primary direction of traffic flow is the downlink direction and selection of the low power base station cell is favored if the primary direction of traffic flow is the uplink direction.
摘要:
Methods of communicating with a selected user equipment terminal (UE) in a first cell served by a base station and a remote radio head include forming a list of non-targeted UEs including other UEs in the first cell and cell edge UEs in a neighboring cell that borders the first cell that are located near a border of the first cell and the neighboring cell, generating a list of candidate precoding matrices that can be used to communicate with the selected UE from the base station and/or from the remote radio head, generating a list of available precoding matrices by discarding from the list of candidate precoding matrices those precoding matrices that may cause interference to at least one non-targeted UE, selecting a precoding matrix from the list of available precoding matrices, and communicating with the selected UE using the selected precoding matrix.
