摘要:
A system and method for synchronized and coordinated beam switching and scheduling in a wireless communications system is provided. A method for controller operation includes determining a beam cycle pattern, sharing the beam cycle pattern with neighboring controllers, receiving beam information from a communications device, generating scheduling information from the beam cycle pattern and beam cycle patterns from other controllers, receiving a transmission intended for the communications device, and causing the transmission to be transmitted to the communications device. The beam cycle pattern includes a list of beam patterns transmitted by the controller, and the transmission is transmitted using the scheduling information and the received beam information.
摘要:
A system and method for inter-cell interference coordination is provided. A method for controller operation includes receiving interferer information from a device served by the controller, scheduling a cell edge device based on the received interferer information, and reporting usage information of the subset of resources to neighboring controllers. The cell edge device operates in a periphery of a coverage area of the controller, and the cell edge device is scheduled to a subset of resources. The method also includes from each neighboring controller, receiving neighboring usage information of a neighboring subset of resources reserved for cell edge devices served by the neighboring controller. The method further includes scheduling a cell center device based on the received usage information from the neighboring controllers, and transmitting to scheduled devices over their respective scheduled resources. Cell center device is scheduled to resources not in the subset of resources.
