Embodiment
Inventor is realizing noticing in process of the present invention: in identical networking situation, there is the inherent characteristic that co-channel interference is TDD system between multiple cellular cell; The minizone co-channel interference of TD-LTE system can be divided into: closely co-channel interference and remote co-channel interference.Closely co-channel interference is: the interference of uplink/downlink that close two or more communities occur owing to using identical running time-frequency resource, comprising: interfered cell terminal to the uplink interference of base station, disturbed cell, base station, interfered cell to the descending interference of disturbed cell terminal; Because this co-channel interference occurs between the nearer community of standoff distance, therefore this co-channel interference is called closely co-channel interference (near-end interference).Remote co-channel interference is: the interference between base station, specifically refers to the conventional descending sub frame of remote interference base station and the DwPTS interference to disturbed base station UpPTS and regular upstream subframe; Now, due to interference base station and disturbed base station in distance general relatively far apart, therefore the co-channel interference between this base station is called remote co-channel interference (far-end interference).
Owing to not having the detection method of far-end interference in the prior art, therefore a kind of detection method and equipment of far-end interference are provided in the embodiment of the present invention, to realize the monitoring function to far-end interference, thus when judging to there is far-end interference, interference signal is further measured, and takes corresponding far-end interference solution.
Below in conjunction with the accompanying drawing in the present invention, be clearly and completely described the technical scheme in the present invention, obviously, described embodiment is only a part of embodiment of the present invention, instead of whole embodiments.Based on the embodiment in the present invention, those of ordinary skill in the art, not making the every other embodiment obtained under creative work prerequisite, belong to the scope of protection of the invention.
