Abstract:
A centralized scheduling method and apparatus is provided for minimizing inter-cell interference in the wireless communication system adopting femto-eNB-based service coverage expansion (range expansion). The method includes establishing, by a server, a connection with at least one base station, collecting channel information between the at least one base station connected to the server and terminals, determining interfering base stations causing interference to each terminal based on the channel information, and selecting the terminals to be scheduled in consideration of the interfering base stations.
Abstract:
Performing scheduling operations by a centralized scheduler in a wireless communication system. Receiving Channel State Information (CSI) about a channel between each of a plurality of Transmission Points (TPs) and each of a plurality of User Equipments (UEs) performing communication with each of the plurality of TPs from each of the plurality of TPs, performing a first scheduling operation for allocating wireless resources to each of the plurality of TPs based on the CSI received from each of the plurality of TPs, and transmitting first scheduling information representing a result of the first scheduling operation to each of the plurality of TPs. The first scheduling information contains transmission power information representing transmission power for each of the wireless resources allocated to each of the plurality of TPs, and is used to perform a second scheduling operation to select a UE to communicate with each of the plurality of TPs.
Abstract:
The disclosure relates to a 5G or pre-5G communication system for supporting higher data transmission rates than 4G communication systems such as LTE systems. According to the disclosure, a method for performing beamforming by a base station in a wireless communication system comprises obtaining transmission time proportions allocated to a plurality of beam directions and performing beamforming to send control information in the plurality of beam directions based on the obtained transmission time proportions. A base station configured to perform beamforming in a wireless communication system, includes a transceiver configured to perform beamforming communication with a UE, and a processor configured to obtain transmission time proportions allocated to each of a plurality of beam directions, and control beamforming for sending control information based on the obtained transmission time proportions.
Abstract:
An apparatus and method for reducing the volume of a resource allocation information message in a broadband wireless communication system are provided. The method includes transmitting a message including information indicating a periodicity of an uplink control channel for an initial network entry; and receiving an uplink signal for the initial network entry through the uplink control channel.
Abstract:
An apparatus and method for transmitting and receiving data in a communication system are provided. In the method, a BS selects a repeater group from among a plurality of repeater groups, for use in transmitting first data to an MS and transmits the first data to the MS according to the number of repeaters of the selected repeater group. The first data is different from data transmitted by the repeaters of the selected repeater group.
Abstract:
A method of supporting fast sub-cell switching by a sub-cell included in a macro coverage in a wireless communication system is provided. The method includes receiving multiple pieces of feedback information on multiple sub-cells from a User Equipment (UE), extracting channel quality indicators from the multiple pieces of received feedback information, respectively, comparing values of the extracted channel quality indicators, and determining, based on a result of the comparison of the values of the extracted channel quality indicators, whether to perform fast sub-cell switching of the UE.
