    摘要: The invention proposes method of providing measurement reports. The eNodeB sends (S10, S11) a user equipment information about a plurality of subframe patterns used by a plurality of wireless networks respectively, and notifies (S12, S13) the user equipment associations between the measurement reports and said plurality of subframe patterns. The user equipment measures (S14) channel information in at least one subframe patterns, generates measurement reports for said at least one sub-frame frame patterns according to said association, and sends (S15, S16) said measurement reports to said eNodeB. The eNodeB relates (S17) each of the received measurement reports with the corresponding subframe pattern according to said association.

    摘要: One embodiment of the invention provides a mechanism to assist the eNodeB of the second cell, for example macrocell eNodeB or femtocell eNodeB to determine the configuration of ABSs. To be specific, the eNodeB of the first cell sends a request signaling to the eNodeB of the second cell to inform of the requirement for ABSs. The eNodeB of the second cell receives the request signaling from the eNodeB of the first cell, and then it determines the pattern of ABSs and sends the pattern of ABSs in the form of bitmap through a signaling to the eNodeB of the first cell. As the requirement for ABSs is determined by the eNodeB of the first cell on the basis of the number of the UEs and/or the traffic load of the UEs which are near the edge of coverage area of the picocell, it can help the eNodeB of the second cell to determine the configuration of ABSs, i.e. the pattern of ABSs, so that the efficient resource utilization is achieved.

    摘要: The eNB of a first cell being interfered by at least one second cell, obtains pattern information, from the eNB of the second cell or network configuration, indicating almost blank subframes that are configured by the eNB of the second cell or the network configuration; determines measurement signalling indicating subframes; and sends the measurement signalling to the UE. The UE in the first cell receives the measurement signalling from the serving eNB, the measurement signalling comprising at least one pattern information recommended by at least one second cell or network configuration, each of the pattern information indicating at least one almost blank subframe that is configured by the corresponding second cell; determines the resource used for measurement according to the measurement signalling; and carries out measurement on the determined resource.

    摘要: The present application describes embodiments of methods and apparatuses that may be used to accommodate different reference symbol patterns. One embodiment of the method includes identifying overlapping resource element(s) in a resource block by comparing a first pattern of resource elements associated with first reference symbols to a second pattern of resource elements associated with second reference symbols. This embodiment also includes transmitting the first and second reference symbols in the overlapping resource element(s) when first and second antenna ports allocated for transmission of the first and second reference symbols in the overlapping resource element(s) are the same. Transmission of the first reference symbol in the overlapping resource elements is bypassed when the first and second antenna ports are different.
