摘要:
Providing for a multipoint equalization (MPE) framework for coordinated multipoint (CoMP) transmission in wireless communication is described herein. The disclosed MPE framework involves distributed scheduling decisions for CoMP transmission, reducing complexity of scheduling coordination as compared with centralized scheduling techniques that coordinate scheduling decisions for multiple network base stations. Further, the MPE framework involves distributed computation of CoMP transmission coefficients, relying on a maximum of two backhaul hops to obtain information for the computation, and disseminate the transmission coefficients. The disclosed MPE framework shows substantial gains in various network deployments over conventional CoMP techniques.

Techniques for reporting channel state information (CSI) based on scalable channel feedback are described. A user equipment (UE) may receive data transmission from one or more cells among a plurality of cells and may report CSI for each of the plurality of cells. For scalable channel feedback, the UE may report CSI with different granularity for different cells. The granularity of feedback for each cell may be selected based on the quality of a communication channel between the cell and the UE, which may be determined based on a long-term channel gain for the cell. The granularity of feedback may be defined by a subband size, a reporting interval, granularity of quantization of CSI, etc. The UE may report CSI for each cell based on the granularity of feedback for the cell. The UE may receive data transmission sent by at least one cell based on the reported CSI.

An apparatus and method for providing encoded information pertaining to a user-specific reference signal associated with a user equipment in a multiple access wireless communication system are provided. The encoded information jointly indicates a rank of transmission together with at least one parameter relating to the user-specific reference signal, such as a set of antenna ports and a user-specific reference signal pattern. The encoded information is transmitted in a downlink control channel to reduce overhead in the channel.

Techniques for scheduling UEs are described. In one design, a scheduler (e.g., for a cell) may receive channel direction information (CDI) and channel strength information (CSI) from a plurality of UEs. In one design, the CDI from each UE may include at least one eigenvector, and the CSI from each UE may include at least one singular value corresponding to the at least one eigenvector. The scheduler may schedule at least one UE among the plurality of UEs for data transmission based on the CDI and CSI from the plurality of UEs. The scheduler may select the at least one UE based on a metric related to signal-to-leakage ratio (SLR), or spectral efficiency, etc. In one design, the scheduler may evaluate the performance of different sets of UEs to determine whether to schedule one UE for single-user MIMO or multiple UEs for multi-user MIMO.

In a cellular wireless communication system, peer-to-peer (P2P) links between mobile devices are implemented, and controlled using an aggregate utility metric for a group of P2P and cellular links. A mobile node participating in a P2P link, or an eNB, may periodically broadcast an activity level indicator indicating a resource-dependent activity level of the link. The node may control the activity level in response to utility metrics received from members of neighboring P2P links to maximize an aggregate utility of the link and the neighboring P2P links sharing at least a subset of resources of a common frequency spectrum. Formation or termination of P2P links may be controlled in response to comparing a calculated achievable utility value to a current utility value of a link, and taking action calculated to maximize the aggregate utility value.
