    摘要: Systems and methodologies are described that facilitate dynamically forming clusters in a wireless communication environment. A set of non-overlapping clusters can be formed dynamically over time and in a distributed manner. Each of the clusters can include a set of base stations and a set of mobile devices. The clusters can be yielded based upon a set of local strategies selected by base stations across the network converged upon through message passing. For example, each base station can select a particular local strategy as a function of time based upon network-wide utility estimates respectively conditioned upon implementation of the particular local strategy and disparate possible local strategies that can cover the corresponding base station. Moreover, operation within each of the clusters can be coordinated.

    摘要: Providing for record filtering in distributed dynamic clustering algorithms for coordinated multipoint (CoMP) wireless communication is described herein. By way of example, strategy selection records distributed as part of a belief propagation network are pruned at recipient nodes, thereby reducing processing overhead for dynamic clustering. As a result, cooperative policies can be determined with greater efficiency, and with greater relevance to local clusters of cooperating base stations. In some aspects, record pruning can comprise identifying and discarding redundant or incompatible sets of policy decisions. In at least one aspect, a number of evaluated records can be capped based on relevance, while preserving deployment-wide applicability of the belief propagation network. Accordingly, dynamic distributed CoMP decisions are optimized on a deployment-wide scale that more efficiently converges to maximum utility solutions.

    摘要: Systems and methodologies are described that facilitate cooperation strategy selection for a network multiple-in-multiple-out (N-MIMO) communication system. As described herein, one or more nodes in a communication system capable of N-MIMO communication can calculate marginal utilities, projected per-user rates, and/or other parameters corresponding to respective associated users. Based on these calculations, respective network nodes can perform user scheduling and selection, cell scheduling and selection, selection of a cooperation strategy (e.g., coordinated silencing, joint transmission, coordinated beamforming, etc.), and/or other operations to provide cooperative communication for respective users. As further described herein, projected rate calculation for a given user can be adjusted based on processing or channel implementation loss associated with the user, interference nulling capability of the user, or other factors. As additionally described herein, these and/or other parameters can be fed back by respective users to a serving network node and/or mandated via system performance requirements.

    摘要: Techniques for sending hierarchical feedback of channel state information are described. In one design, a user equipment (UE) determines channel gain information for multiple cells selectable to transmit data to the UE. The UE also determines intra-cell relative phase information for at least one cell among the multiple cells. The UE reports the channel gain information and the intra-cell relative phase information. The channel gain information may include multiple quantized channel vectors for each of the multiple cells. The intra-cell relative phase information may indicate phase errors in the quantized channel vectors for each of the at least one cell. The UE may also determine and report other information. The UE may receive data from one or more cells among the plurality of cells. Each cell may transmit data based on at least one transmit vector determined based on the channel gain information and the intra-cell relative phase information.

    摘要: 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.

    摘要: Techniques for supporting peer-to-peer (P2P) communication are disclosed. In an aspect, P2P communication may be supported with a symmetric waveform for a P2P downlink and a P2P uplink. In one design, a first UE generates a first signal based on a particular waveform (e.g., a downlink waveform or an uplink waveform for a wireless network) and transmits the first signal to a second UE for P2P communication. The first UE also receives a second signal generated by the second UE based on the particular waveform and transmitted to the first UE for P2P communication. In another aspect, a proximity detection signal may be transmitted in a portion of a subframe instead of the entire subframe. The remaining portion of the subframe may be used to transmit control information and/or other information to support P2P communication.
