Embodiment
For making purpose of the present invention, technological means and advantage clearer, below in conjunction with accompanying drawing the present invention is described in further details.
Basic thought of the present invention is: after finishing the UE scheduling of resource by the residential quarter at CoMP UE place, only will recommend other resources of measuring the residential quarter at the shared running time-frequency resource of this UE transmits, and for the shared running time-frequency resource of non-UE, the resource information that no longer transmission is recommended between the base station.
Usually, lower for Cell Edge User SINR value, employing CoMP transmission means can effectively be eliminated the interference between neighbor cell, improves the data receiver performance; And for Cell Center User, SU-MIMO or MU-MIMO can provide higher performance gain, then do not adopt the CoMP transmission means, therefore, usually adopt the CoMP transmission means for Cell Edge User, described CoMP UE is Cell Edge User namely, and adopts SU-MIMO or MU-MIMO for Cell Center User.
In addition, the applicable scene of various MIMO patterns and the performance of generation depend on network topology and wireless transmission environment (multipath, antenna angle of arrival, channel relevancy) and QoS of survice requirement (alone family speed, average throughput, time delay etc.).SU-MIMO, MU-MIMO and CoMP-MIMO have advantage separately, and a certain MIMO pattern can not be applicable to all scenes, so only to dispose a kind of MIMO pattern in the IMT-A system be poor efficiency.For the business that requires for different QoS in various wireless environment provides service, system need to dispose multiple MIMO pattern, and switches between various patterns neatly according to the applied environment of complexity.Fig. 5 is the example that multiple MIMO mode mixture is used, and BS2 serves simultaneously MS2 and MS3 so it and is operated in the MU-MIMO pattern; And BS1 and BS3 only are MS1 and MS3 service so are operated in the SU-MIMO pattern.MS3 receives the transmission of BS2 and BS3 simultaneously, therefore is operated in CoMP joint transmission pattern; MS1 receives only the data of BS1, and BS3 avoids the interference to MS1 by " empty minute " simultaneously, so MS1 is operated in CoMP united beam excipient pattern; Similar with MS1, MS2 provides data transport service by BS2, and BS1 has avoided the interference to MS2 simultaneously, so MS2 is operated in CoMP united beam excipient pattern.In sum, seven kinds of combinations shown in the total table 1 of the MIMO pattern of base station support and CoMP type:
Table 1
Next introduce the CoMP transmission method basic procedure based on local scheduler of the present invention.Wherein, be transmitted as example so that a CoMP UE is carried out CoMP, suppose that this UE is UE A, the method comprises:
Step 101, UE A selects K residential quarter as measuring the residential quarter from the neighbor cell of this residential quarter, and according to MIMO pattern and the CoMP type that this residential quarter is supported, UE A reports the channel condition information CSI of this residential quarter and measurement residential quarter to the base station of this residential quarter; Wherein, described K is the constant of systemic presupposition.
Step 102, MIMO pattern and CoMP type that the base station of this residential quarter is supported according to this residential quarter, carrying out scheduling and the resource of UE A distributes, and determine to step 101 each measure cell transmission, the resource of distributing for described UE, the MIMO pattern that this residential quarter is supported and CoMP type and take running time-frequency resource at UE A and recommend the reference informations such as the corresponding resource of corresponding measurement residential quarter and CQI difference.
In this step, this cell base station distributes running time-frequency resource according to the information that UE A reports for this UE A, then, measure cell transmission to each and distribute to the running time-frequency resource of UE A, MIMO pattern and the CoMP type of this residential quarter support and resource and the CQI difference of recommending corresponding measurement residential quarter.Wherein, the MIMO pattern of this residential quarter support and CoMP type are one of five kinds of combinations corresponding to aforementioned table 1 small area edge customer (being CoMP UE).Sending to resource and the CQI difference of the recommendation of measuring the residential quarter, is to recommend the resource of measuring the residential quarter at the running time-frequency resource (being the running time-frequency resource that UE A takies) that this cell base station is distributed to UE A, comprises PMI or wave beam numbering, and the information such as CQI.
Step 103, each is measured the residential quarter and is defined as the CoMP type that UE A provides, and this residential quarter and each cooperation cell are UE A the transmission of data according to the CoMP type of determining.
Each measures the information that the residential quarter sends according to this cell base station in the step 102, and the MIMO pattern of self supporting and CoMP type, and determining whether provides CoMP service and CoMP type for UE A; The measurement residential quarter that provides CoMP to serve for UE A is the cooperation cell of UE A; Cooperation cell is carried out the synergistic data transmission of UE A with this residential quarter.
The above-mentioned describe, in general terms that is the inventive method has wherein provided among the present invention the CoMP transfer process based on local scheduler.In this flow process, the CoMP transmission with respect to the combined dispatching in the background technology has greatly reduced amount of information mutual between the base station.
Next, by a specific embodiment explanation specific implementation of the present invention.Particularly, still supposition treats that service-user is UE A, and the method flow in the present embodiment comprises:
Step 201 is judged user type, for CoMP UE, determines to measure the residential quarter.
In the present embodiment, can determine that at first service UE is edge customer or central user, if central user, then determine SU-MIMO or MU-MIMO mode according to the mode of prior art, for this UE provides data transport service, if edge customer then carries out the CoMP transmission according to the mode among the present invention.
Particularly, the co-channel interference that Cell Edge User is subject to is larger than Cell Center User, therefore this residential quarter that can report according to UE measurements, the base station (being this cell base station) of residential quarter, UE place and neighbor cell determine UE to the circuit loss value SINR of UE down direction SINR value whether above system's predefine thresholding, determine whether to be Cell Edge User.
The SINR computing formula is as follows:
P
i: the pilot tone transmitted power of i neighbor cell;
P
0: the pilot tone transmitted power of this residential quarter;
N: noise power;
Receive the reception pilot power sum of n the strongest residential quarter of pilot power, n is specified by system.
L
i: cell i is to the path loss of UE.
When the SINR of UE value during greater than the thresholding α of systemic presupposition, judge that UE is Cell Edge User, otherwise, judge that UE is Cell Center User.After definite UE was Cell Edge User, this UE selected K the strongest residential quarter of reception pilot frequency intensity except this residential quarter, and as measuring the residential quarter, wherein, K is by default.

The above-mentioned mode that reports respectively is to the choice between CoMP performance and the up expense.CoMP is as the interference cancellation techniques that strengthens, and the poorest situation is to measure residential quarter CSI report cycle endless, and when the X2 interface ability was not limited, it was shorter to measure residential quarter CSI report cycle, and the CoMP performance is better, and up expense is larger.
Step 203, MIMO pattern and CoMP type that the base station of this residential quarter is supported according to this residential quarter are carried out scheduling and the resource of UE A and are distributed.
The control residential quarter is adopted identical dispatching method to central user with edge customer:
If this cell base station adopts the SU-MIMO mode, be that UE A selects suitable running time-frequency resource by the PMI of UE A recommendation and the buffer status of UE, UE monopolizes this running time-frequency resource.
If this cell base station adopts the MU-MIMO mode, at first seek the pairing user according to the PMI of UE A recommendation and the PMI (can be more than) that recommends other users to use for this UE, if find the pairing user, then distribute identical running time-frequency resource to them; If do not find the pairing user of UE A, then make this UE A monopolize a time-frequency resource.
For the center cell user, after carrying out the resource distribution, carry out transfer of data according to the mode of prior art, for the edge cell user, continue to carry out following steps and carry out the CoMP transmission.
Step 204, each that determine to step 201 measured cell transmission, the resource of distributing for UE A, the MIMO pattern that this residential quarter is supported and CoMP type and take the reference informations such as corresponding resource that running time-frequency resource is recommended corresponding measurement residential quarter at UE A.
With UE A feedback CSI info class in the abovementioned steps 202 seemingly, this cell base station also is with the different of CoMP type and to some extent difference of the MIMO pattern supported according to this residential quarter to the information of measuring cell transmission in this step.Next, in the various situations of classificating introduction, send to the information of measuring the residential quarter.

Public message form under the above-mentioned various different CoMP types (above-mentioned totally 7 kinds) has been avoided the variation of the cooperation message format when the CoMP pattern is switched.
If this cell base station can be circulated a notice of disturbed condition to measuring the residential quarter in real time with the frequency of UE A feedback CSI, then measure the residential quarter and can in time make corresponding resource adjustment, the CoMP performance can guarantee so.But owing to be subject to X2 port transmission time delay (may because load is heavier or itself do not satisfy the CoMP delay requirement), the cooperation message sink is lagged behind, the variation of channel can not be in time followed in the interference control of minizone, probably makes systematic function obtain negative gain.
Therefore, preferably, system can be according to X2 mouth ability and load condition self adaptation adjustment cooperation transmission of messages cycle in the present embodiment.If the cooperation transmission of messages cycle, then will not send the CQI difference greater than the cycle of UE feedback CSI and will make average rear (Δ CQI
0→ Δ CQI
0Δ CQI
1→ Δ CQI
1) at the X2 port transmission.When X2 mouth limited ability, make presence of intercell interference control can follow the long-time quality of channel, X2 message is controlled in the performance loss that the hysteresis of reduction transmission of messages brings simultaneously makes expense.
Step 205 is measured the residential quarter according to up-to-date cooperation message, and determining whether provides CoMP service and the CoMP type that provides for UE A.
After the relevant information that sends in the above-mentioned steps 204 is received in the measurement residential quarter, determining whether provides the CoMP service for UE A, provide the CoMP service if be defined as UE A, then will be defined as UE A provides the measurement residential quarter of CoMP service to be called cooperation cell, and further determines the CoMP type that cooperation cell provides.Specifically determine whether to provide the mode of CoMP service and the CoMP type that provides can adopt various possible modes, present embodiment is not done regulation.But the cardinal principle principle of determining is as described below:
Only support that the CoMP type is inter-cell united beam shaping if measure the residential quarter, then measure the running time-frequency resource that the UE A use that comprises in this message will be avoided using in the residential quarter as far as possible, or PMI or wave beam numbering that UE A forbids are served other users; To use UE A to take available PMI or other users of wave beam numbering service that the UE A on the resource recommends as far as possible.
Only support that the CoMP type is inter-cell united transmission if measure the residential quarter, then measure the residential quarter receive the cooperation message after, the use of trying one's best is carried out joint transmission in PMI or wave beam numbering that UE A takies recommend adoption on the running time-frequency resource to UE A, or avoid using the running time-frequency resource identical with UE A.
Support simultaneously inter-cell united beam shaping and joint transmission if measure the residential quarter, after then measuring the residential quarter and receiving cooperation message, the running time-frequency resource that will avoid using the UE A that comprises in this information to use, or UE A PMI or other users of wave beam numbering service of forbidding; To use UE A to take available PMI or other users of wave beam numbering service that the UE A on the resource recommends, or PMI or the wave beam numbering of using UE A to recommend be carried out joint transmission to UE A as far as possible.
If cooperation cell is determined to provide the CoMP service take community associated transmission means as UE A, send in real time the cooperation response message to this cell base station.Message content comprises the running time-frequency resource position that joint transmission takies.This cell base station need to send to cooperation cell by wired carrying with data, transformat and the antenna end slogan that cooperation cell sends after receiving this interference cooperation response message.
Step 206, the CoMP type that this residential quarter and cooperation cell are determined according to step 205 is UE A the transmission of data.
During for the UE the transmission of data, if the CoMP type is the united beam excipient, the CQI in this residential quarter CSI information that this residential quarter reports according to described UE determines MCS; If the CoMP type is joint transmission, the CQI in this residential quarter CSI information that this residential quarter reports according to described UE and the Δ CQI in the cooperation cell CSI information
1Determine MCS.
So far, the method flow of present embodiment finishes.
