    摘要: Systems and methods are described herein for managing beacon signaling in a wireless communication system. A method described herein includes identifying a neighboring macrocell and a time division multiplexing (TDM) channel offset of the neighboring macrocell, the channel offset corresponding to at least one of a signaling channel or an overhead channel; selecting a local channel offset that differs from the channel offset of the neighboring macrocell; and generating a transmission schedule such that first transmissions are omitted for at least a portion of transmission intervals of the neighboring macrocell; wherein the transmission intervals of the neighboring macrocell are identified according to the channel offset of the neighboring macrocell and wherein the first transmissions include at least one of pilot transmissions, medium access control (MAC) transmissions or traffic transmissions.

    摘要: Transmissions of beacons by a set of access points (e.g., femtocells) are synchronized to facilitate discovery of the access points by an access terminal moving through the coverage areas of the access points. In some embodiments, periodic beacon transmissions are synchronized across all of the femtocells of a set of femtocells such that each femtocell transmits a beacon signal according to a similar pattern and at the same time. In some embodiments, an opportunistic beacon control scheme involves commencing beacon transmissions by at least one femtocell of a set of femtocells upon determining that an access terminal has communicated with one or more of the femtocells.

    摘要: Techniques are provided for mobile assisted reverse link interference management. For example, a method for providing mobile assisted reverse link (RL) interference management includes requesting at least one pilot strength measurement from a user device. The method may include receiving at least one macrocell pilot strength measurement or femtocell pilot or beacon strength measurement from the user device in response to the request. The method may include determining a data rate allocation for the user device based at least in part on the at least one macrocell pilot strength measurement or femtocell pilot or beacon strength measurement. The method may include transmitting the data rate allocation to the user device, thereby controlling RL interference caused by the user device to at least one non-serving cell.

    摘要: A method for enabling an active hand-in from a macro base station network to a femtocell network includes servicing an active hand-in of a mobile entity from a macro base station to a femtocell network, using a first femtocell of the femtocell network. The active hand-in includes a hard handoff of the mobile entity from the macro base station with soft handoff of the mobile entity enabled between the first femtocell and one or more neighboring femtocells in the femtocell network. The hard handoff with soft handoff enabled may be implemented using novel procedures implemented by one or more entities of a wireless communications network including the femtocells and macro base station.
