Techniques for centralized control of relay operation are described. In an aspect, a designated network entity (e.g., a base station or a network controller) may control the operation of relay stations within its coverage area. The network entity may select certain user equipments (UEs) to be relay UEs that can serve as relay stations for other UEs, e.g., based on pathloss between the UEs and a base station, the locations of the UEs, battery power levels of the UEs, fairness considerations, etc. The network entity may also select a specific relay UE to serve as a relay station for a client UE desiring to communicate with a base station, e.g., based on pilot measurements from relay UEs for the client UE. The network entity may also control transmission of discovery pilots by relay UEs and/or client UEs for relay detection.

Systems and methods that designate a control attachment point(s) during transmission of data in a Coordinated Multipoint (CoMP) system. The control attachment point is represented by an anchor cell to address control signaling and represent a User Equipment's (UE) interaction with the wireless communication system from a perspective of control (e.g., supplying/sending grants to the UE, transmitting/receiving ACKS on the downlink/uplink to the UE, control information (CQI), and the like.) The cells can further engage in backhaul transfer of information therebetween, and dynamic switching/change of anchor point based on criteria such as control loading, channel quality, and the like can further be implemented.

Techniques for performing cell detection with interference cancellation are described. In an aspect, a user equipment (UE) may detect for pilots from cells in a wireless network using interference cancellation. The UE may process a received signal to detect for pilots from one or more cells. The pilots may be common pilots transmitted with a reuse factor of one or low reuse pilots transmitted with a reuse factor greater than one. The UE may estimate the interference from a detected cell (e.g., the strongest detected cell) and may cancel the estimated interference from the received signal. The UE may then process the interference-canceled signal to detect for pilots from additional cells. The UE may be able to detect pilots from more cells, e.g., from weaker cells, by canceling the interference due to the pilots from the detected cells. This may be desirable for various applications such as positioning.

Methods, apparatuses, and computer program products are disclosed for encoding/decoding a wireless control signal. For encoding, control bits are received and encoded with a first error control code so as to create a first set of encoded bits. The encoded bits are then encoded with a second error control code so as to create a second set of encoded bits, which are modulated as beacon tones and subsequently transmitted. For decoding, beacon tones corresponding to a set of control bits are received and subsequently demodulated so as to ascertain a set of demodulated bits. The demodulated bits are then decoded with a decoder so as to ascertain a set of decoded bits. The decoded bits are then decoded with a second decoder so as to ascertain a second set of decoded bits, which includes the set of control bits.

Techniques for mitigating interference on control channels in a wireless communication network are described. In an aspect, high interference on radio resources used for a control channel may be mitigated by sending a request to reduce interference to one or more interfering stations. Each interfering station may reduce its transmit power on the radio resources, which may then allow the control channel to observe less interference. In one design, a user equipment (UE) may detect high interference on radio resources used for a control channel by a desired base station. The UE may send a request to reduce interference on the radio resources to an interfering base station, which may reduce its transmit power on the radio resources. The UE may receive the control channel on the radio resources from the desired base station and may observe less interference from the interfering base station.
摘要:
Signaling-only access may be established with an access node under certain circumstances such as, for example, upon determining that a node is not authorized for data access at the access node. A node that is not authorized for data access at an access node may still be paged by the access node through the use of signaling-only access. In this way, transmissions by the access node may not interfere with the reception of pages at the node. A first node may be selected for providing paging while a second node is selected for access under certain circumstances such as, for example, upon determining that the second node provides more desirable service than the first node.

Providing for base station (BS) acquisition in semi-planned or unplanned wireless access networks is described herein. By way of example, a signal preamble can be dynamically allocated to wireless signal resources, such that the preamble is scheduled to different resource(s) across different cycles of the signal. Dynamic allocation can be pseudo-random, based on collision feedback, or determined by a suitable algorithm to mitigate collisions from a dominant interferer. In addition, dynamic scheduling can be particular to a type of BS to significantly reduce collisions from BSs of disparate types. In at least one aspect, a preamble resource can be sub-divided into multiple frequency sub-carrier tiles. Control channel information can be transmitted on each tile of a group of such tiles, further mitigating effects of a dominant interferer on a subset of the tile group.

Systems and methodologies are described that facilitate establishing a forward link acknowledgement channel and transmitting acknowledgment signals thereupon. In particular, the signals can be spread within contiguous channel clusters in a tile where the signals in the cluster are mutually orthogonal to one another. Additionally, the signals can be multiplexed over a plurality of frequency regions. In this regard, the acknowledgment signals are diverse with respect to frequency and interference; moreover, the signals can be received and decoded even where one of the channels experiences high interference. Furthermore, the acknowledgement signals can also communicate a channel deassignment value, which allows devices to utilize persistent channels in communicating data to one another.

A method for peer-to-peer wireless communication by a first user equipment (UE) includes communicating with a second UE, and using a wireless area network air interface during the communication with the second UE. The communicating with the second UE comprises transmitting a downlink signal configured for downlink of the wireless area network air interface.
