Wherein, 1 port transmission mode can use transmission mode 1, and N-port mode can be realized using transmission mode 9.? Under transmission mode 1, user equipment carries out channel quality detection using 1 port CRS, then determines coding staff according to channel quality The information such as formula, and then carry out data transmission;Channel quality detection is carried out using N number of port CSI-RS in N-port transmission mode 9, Then the information such as coding mode are determined according to channel quality, while configures 1 port CRS, the effect of the port CRS is that transmission is small Area's broadcast, user equipment can carry out downlink signal ionization meter according to the Cell Broadcast CB.
Therefore, in the present embodiment, in order to realize that be in the user equipment of central area is carried out using N-port transmission mode Transmission, the user equipment for being in fringe region are transmitted using 1 port transmission mode, and base station sets the user of new access cell It is standby to be configured to transmission mode 1,1 cell-level port: the port CRS is configured under transmission mode 1;Then the position of user equipment is detected Set, if user equipment is in central area, by user device transmissions pattern switching to transmission mode 9, and the port CRS not In the case where change, N number of user class port: the port CSI-RS is configured.Wherein, cell-level port and user class port by base station according to Transmission mode is user device configuration, and cell-level port refers to that the user equipment in cell is similarly configured, and user Grade port refers to that base station can carry out different configuration of port for each user respectively.
I.e. when user equipment accesses cell, 1 port transmission mode is configured by the transmission mode of user equipment.
Step 202: the spectrum efficiency of base station detection user equipment.
Specifically, step 202 can be carried out using following manner:
Base station obtains the channel quality that user equipment is sent;
Base station calculates the spectrum efficiency of user equipment according to channel quality.
Step 203: when the spectrum efficiency of user equipment is greater than the first threshold value, base station determines that user equipment is in center Region;Alternatively, base station determines that user equipment is in edge when the spectrum efficiency of user equipment is less than or equal to the first threshold value Region.

It, can not be true using this mode due to can only work in single stream but when user job is in 1 port transmission mode Determine user equipment and is presently in position.
Specifically, when user equipment work is under N-port transmission mode, user equipment can be using single stream and multithread mould The foundation of formula work, user equipment selection single-stream mode or multi-stream mode is: being calculated separately according to SINR value using single-stream mode Spectrum efficiency with when multi-stream mode work, selects the higher mode of spectrum efficiency as current operating mode.Fringe region SINR value is low, is higher than multi-stream mode using single-stream mode spectrum efficiency, when user equipment transmits proportion using single-stream mode When higher than the second threshold value, illustrate that it is in cell edge region, it is on the contrary then be in central area.
Wherein, detection user equipment transmits the proportion in always transmission duration using single-stream mode, comprising:
Base station records the transmission duration that user equipment uses single-stream mode in transmission process;
The transmission duration that base station calculates single-stream mode accounts for the ratio of total transmission duration, obtains user equipment using single-stream mode Transmission proportion in always transmission duration.
Wherein, always transmission duration can be a setting value, such as when detection uses the transmission duration of single-stream mode, can To determine the period of a detection, detection uses the transmission duration of single-stream mode within the period, when which is total transmission It is long.
Step 204: when user equipment is currently operating in 1 port transmission mode, and user equipment is in central area, base It stands and the transmission mode of user equipment is switched into N-port transmission mode, be the N number of port CSI-RS of user device configuration, and by N-terminal Port transmission mode and N number of port CSI-RS are notified to user equipment;Alternatively, when user equipment is currently operating in N-port transmission mould The transmission mode of user equipment is switched to 1 port transmission mode by formula, and when user equipment is in fringe region, base station, and by 1 Port transmission pattern notification is to user equipment.
