    摘要: Some embodiments of the invention provide a method for operating a first base station of a radio access network (RAN). At the first base station, the method receives a set of allow and block policies for allocating carrier resources to carrier beams utilized by the first base station for mobile devices within a first region serviced by the first base station, said first region located near a second region serviced by a second base station. At the first base station, the method identifies a first mobile device operating in the first region. At the first base station, the method uses the set of allow and block policies to allocate carrier resources to a carrier beam used to communicate with the first mobile device in the first region.

    摘要: Some embodiments of the invention provide a system for mitigating inter-region interference for multiple regions serviced by multiple RAN (Radio Access Network) base stations. The system includes a first RAN application for generating a map that identifies, for each particular region serviced by each particular RAN base station, a set of one or more sub-regions receiving interfering signals from other RAN base stations. The system includes a second RAN application for (1) using the generated map and a set of input received from the plurality of RAN base stations to define, for each sub-region in the set of sub-regions, policies for allocating carrier resources of the particular RAN base station to carrier beams transmitted by the particular RAN base station to the sub-regions with the interfering signals, and (2) providing the defined policies to the RAN base stations for which the policies are defined.

    摘要: Some embodiments of the invention provide a method for mitigating inter-region interference for multiple regions serviced by multiple RAN (Radio Access Network) base stations. The method is performed for each region serviced by each particular RAN base station. The method identifies a set of one or more sub-regions receiving interfering signals from other RAN base stations. The method specifies, for each particular sub-region in the identified set of sub-regions that receives interfering signals from the particular RAN base station and another RAN base station, (1) an allow policy that identifies an allowed first set of carrier resources of the particular RAN base station that are to be allocated to a set of one or more user equipments operating in the particular sub-region, and (2) a block policy that identifies a blocked second set of carrier resource of the other RAN base station that correspond to the first set of resources and that cannot be allocated to the set of user equipments operating in the particular sub-region. The method distributes the specified allow and block policies to the RAN base stations.
