摘要:
An apparatus and method of allowing user equipment to transmit information directly with other user equipment, using a device-to-device mode is disclosed herein. A device-to-device blank subregion is defined where device-to-device information can be transmitted without interference from other user equipment. The device-to-device blank subregion may be set up such that it is only used in an exclusive mode if a device-to-device cluster is considered highly interfering. A device may join a device-to-device network through the use of a beacon transmission interval, a control transmission interval, and a data transmission interval.

An apparatus and method for managing interference to facilitate allocation of a dynamic uplink and downlink configuration are disclosed herein. Determining whether a first cell causes interference less than a pre-determined threshold level to one or more neighboring cells or whether flexible subframes of radio frames associated with the one or more neighboring cells operate as downlink subframes. In response to the determining condition being met, allocating a first flexible subframe of a first radio frame associated with the first cell to operate as a downlink subframe at normal transmit power level. In response to the determining condition not being met, allocating the first flexible subframe of the first radio frame associated with the first cell as one of a downlink subframe operating in a reduced transmit power level or as an uplink subframe.

Technology for traffic offloading to generate a low interference flexible subframe (FlexSF) of an adaptive uplink-downlink (UL-DL) time-division duplexing (TDD) subframe configuration in a heterogeneous network (HetNet) is disclosed. One method can include an evolved Node B (eNB) monitoring a traffic loading metric for a specified traffic loading condition. The eNB can offload traffic scheduled for a packet of a macro user equipment (UE) from a macro cell to a FlexSF of a UL-DL subframe configuration of a small cell when the specified traffic loading condition exists. The eNB can be a macro eNB of the macro cell or a small eNB of the small cell.

Techniques for adjacent channel interference mitigation are described. In one embodiment, for example, a user equipment (UE) may comprise logic, at least a portion of which is in hardware, the logic to associate the UE with a pico evolved node B (eNB) in a time-division duplex (TDD) picocell, identify an incongruent uplink (UL) sub-frame for the picocell, and select an enhanced UL transmit power for the incongruent UL sub-frame. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

Uplink power control in a macro cell in a wireless network comprises transmitting a reference signal from a base station device to at least one wireless device within the macro cell. The macro cell comprises the base station device and at least one radio transmitter device that is communicatively coupled to and remote from the base station device. The base station device and one or more radio transmitter devices could be selected to be a transmission point, a reception point or a combination thereof, for each wireless device. Information relating to a transmission power of the base station device is also transmitted to the at least one wireless device. An uplink signal is received from the at least one wireless device containing information relating to an uplink power determination that is based on the reference signal and the information relating to the transmission power of the base station device.

A method to transmit and receive a device-to-device (D2D) discovery signal method is disclosed. The D2D discovery signal method operates using currently defined discovery signals as well as novel discovery signals, such as discovery signals employing a PUCCH-based uplink signal, an SRS-based demodulation and reference signal, or a single tone-based beacon signal. Under the D2D discovery signal method, an enhanced base station (eNB) configures the D2D discovery signal to both the transmitter (TX) user equipment (UE) and the receiver (RX) UE, then activates the D2D discovery signal to the TX and RX UEs, such that D2D signal transmission can thereafter occur from either the eNB or the TX UE, and monitored by the RX UE. Once the eNB deactivates the D2D discovery signal, D2D transmissions between UEs cease. Transmissions to configure, activate, and deactivate the D2D discovery signal can be unicast, multicast, or broadcast.

Embodiments of wireless communication devices and methods for device discovery is generally described herein. Some of these embodiments describe an apparatus having processing circuitry arranged to configure a single-tone discovery signal for transmission in a symbol in a transmission opportunity based on an assignment pattern. The assignment pattern may define frequency positions, for a set of transmission opportunities, at which the apparatus shall transmit discovery signals in the corresponding transmission opportunity. The apparatus may have physical layer circuitry arranged to transmit the single-tone discovery signal in the corresponding transmission opportunity. Other methods and apparatuses are also described.

An apparatus may include a transceiver operable to receive a downlink message from a base station for a serving cell, the downlink message allocating a set of control parameters. The apparatus may also include a processor circuit communicatively coupled to the transceiver and an uplink power control module operable on the processor circuit to read the set of control parameters, and apply a signal-to-noise-and-interference (SINR) parameter based on the received set of control parameters to determine physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) power to be applied for a PUSCH transmission. Other embodiments are disclosed and claimed.
摘要:
In accordance with some embodiments, uplink control information, including a channel quality index, may be transmitted using at least two layers. As a result, more information can be provided for use in situations, such as those involving carrier aggregation, where information for a large number of component carriers must all be provided on one primary component carrier.
