Specific embodiment
The many features and advantage of each embodiment are in detail specifications it is clear that therefore, the appended claims are anticipated
Figure covers all such feature and advantage of the embodiment belonged in its true spirit and range.Further, since fields
Technical staff will readily occur to numerous modifications and variations, thus be not intended to for invention embodiment being limited to illustrated and description
Exact configuration and operation, therefore, all suitably modified and equivalent that can be taken belong in respective range.
The preferred embodiment of the present invention described referring to the attached drawing below.
Nowadays, existing topology typically refers to UMTS/LTE network, and existing topology allows small-sized under macro cell base station covering
Cell base station is connected by " netted " format logic, it means that all small cell base stations are all equally with macro cell base station
" same levels " deployment.All small cell base stations " right " all having the same exchange small cell base station and macro cell base station
Between information.
These of cluster of the existing topology of small cell/Wi-Fi deployment usually without each deployment of connection are small-sized small
" local " central control point of area base station.Also, existing topology is not shown small under the macrocell covering by central control point
Any direct correlation between type cell base station；And the lower small cell cluster and macro cell base station of macrocell covering does not have directly
Connect association.In addition, the prior art does not have the ability of local cluster of the management specific to small cell base station.
In addition, many small cell base station/Wi-Fi AP may be present under the covering of macrocell, and they are all with same levels
(off grade) is disposed and is comparably directly connected to EPC (Evolved Packet Core) or RNC (radio network controller), and
And it is directly controlled by EPC or RNC.
These small cell base station/Wi-Fi AP lack local control point and cooperation and communication are made to become more difficult and multiple
It is miscellaneous, and in the case where not knowing whether to need to send these information, identical information may need to be sent to it is many other, from
And the information flowrate problem between these links is caused, and waste bandwidth.
Lack local central control point between the cluster of small cell base station and also results in money to each small cell base station
Source lacks the problem of central management, this is difficult to improve total system rank performance and radio resource utilization.
In this application, the sheet of small cell base station/Wi-Fi AP (continuum typically each in covering cluster)
Ground cluster is disposed under macrocell covering using the framework of branch or star-like format, wherein having to local central control point
Wired or wireless connection mixing；It is associated with by direct or indirect link with macro cell base station；And exchange corresponding informance with
Promote the operation between macro cell base station and small cell base station and cooperate increase to realize capacity and end-user experience
Improve.

And Wi-Fi controller) cooperation management can be performed；Scheduler/resource pipe can be performed in micro-base station (such as femto base station, Wi-Fi AP)
Reason or control management；And scheduler/resource management can be performed in macro base station.
In one embodiment, central controller can be dedicated for reconfiguring to separately user equipment from a micro-base station
One micro-base station.
Wherein central controller is used to adjust the power of micro-base station；User equipment is used to search for the power of adjustment；And it uses
Power of the family equipment based on adjustment and micro-base station chain rupture are simultaneously re-attached to another micro-base station.
In one embodiment, central controller available power and CCA adjusting thresholds from multiple AP is dry to mitigate
It disturbs.Fig. 8 is the schematic diagram for being associated with adjustment Tx power again for being illustrated as UE with access point.
As shown in figure 8, being associated with if UE is heavily disturbed with current AP (AP2).Central controller can be simultaneously
It will reduce to the Tx power of the UE and at the same time increasing CCA, so that UE will be with AP2 disassociation.At the same time, central controller
The Tx power of its adjacent AP1 will be increased, and the CCA for reducing AP1 be associated with UE will with adjacent AP1 again, wherein assuming adjacent
The interference rank of AP2 before the interference rank of AP1 is less than.In addition, chain rupture and again chain of the central controller for user and AP
It connects, rather than for power control to increase S/N (signal-to-noise ratio).
In another embodiment, central controller can be dedicated for using the beam selection of face-to-face wave beam to avoid same
When send two wave beams.
Fig. 9 is the schematic diagram for illustrating the dynamic beam switching of access point.As shown in figure 9, each AP has there are some AP
There are more beam antennas, for example, one of AP has B11, B12 ... B16.It is dry to reduce that wave beam may be selected in central controller
It disturbs.
In another embodiment, central controller can be dedicated for using the synchronous micro-base station of time signal of macro base station.
In a form of implementation, AP can be synchronized in time by the macro base station time, so that it is optional and by central control board
It controls to synchronize the transmission time of AP.It may allow terminal by enabling some AP to send while forbidding other AP to send
The signal of an AP is heard in the case where not interfered by other AP.
Figure 10 is the schematic diagram for illustrating the time synchronization of access point.As shown in Figure 10, in each time interval, center control
Device processed is necessary to ensure that only one wave beam activation every time of overlapping wave beam.
In this embodiment, since a wave beam of each each AP is activation, AP may be selected and make same
Their head to head wave beam of time (direct opposed facing wave beam) un-activation (Tx or Rx).Therefore, this is the excellent of time synchronization
Point.This will require AP to report it at any time next by transmission/which wave beam received, and such central controller can be fed back to
AP makes it know whether this is a good selection.
In addition, better way be defined for each AP a mode make their adjacent beams the same time never
Activation.Thus, it is only required to want synchronization time, but do not need to control them every time.
In another embodiment, central controller is dedicated for by the intelligent frequency distribution across micro-base station or across micro- base
The optimal energy allocation of the united load balancing of the user to stand or micro-base station promotes overall network capacity.
In this application, in one embodiment, each AP opens the 50% of about its total Tx power, and such one group of AP is mutual
Overlapping is to form the hot spot closely covered.Assuming that the Tx power of each AP can be reduced to zero or to its maximum value, in this way when its quilt
When being set as maximum power, the region of other AP can be covered.Since each AP (assuming that single radio of each AP) can be only
User's transmission with a time division multiplexing, therefore although there are multiple wave beams, only one wave beams on each AP
It is sent to specific direction.
In this application, by cable mode or wireless mode via local central control point connect small cell base station/
Wi-Fi AP simplifies small cell base station/Wi-Fi AP connection (being connected to star-like connection from netted).
Central control point local in this way will act as local small cell base station controller, and provide base station collaboration, resource
Management, interference and power coordination and synchronous.Final result is to increase entire system capacity, improve the level of resources utilization, improve
Service quality and improvement end-user experience.
In this application, some technologies are enabled to utilize, such as mutiple antennas beam forming and across multiple small cell base stations/
Sector selection, the interference of Wi-Fi AP are eliminated/are avoided, Tx power cooperates and slot synchronization.
From above-described embodiment as it can be seen that simplifying the company of small cell base station by connecting micro-base station via central controller
It connects；And improve overall system performance and radio resource utilization.
