Abstract:
An apparatus of user equipment (UE) comprises processing circuitry and memory. The processing circuitry decodes radio resource control (RRC) signaling received from an enhanced node B (eNB), wherein the RRC signaling includes an information element (IE) including information of a multi-cast broadcast single frequency network (MBSFN) subframe pattern of neighboring cells of a serving cell of the eNB. The processing circuitry initiates detection of CRS information of neighboring cells by the UE, the CRS information including one or both of physical cell identifiers (Cell IDs) and a number of CRS antenna ports (APs) of the neighboring cells; and initiates neighboring cell CRS interference mitigation (CRS-IM) using the detected CRS information and the received information of the MBSFN subframe pattern. The memory stores the information of the MBSFN subframe pattern.
Abstract:
A communication terminal is described comprising a receiver configured to receive first signals on a first set of communication resources and to receive a plurality of second signals on a second set of communication resources and an interference control unit configured to determine a level of interference of one or more interferers included in the plurality of second signals and to determine a power scaling factor of signal components of the first signals based on the level of interference by the one or more interferers.
