Description

Method for optimizing interference between cells in long term evolution technology
Technical Field
The present application relates to the field of communications technologies, and in particular, to a method for optimizing inter-cell interference in Long Term Evolution (LTE).
Background
The time division long term evolution (TD-LTE) system has an Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiple Access (OFDMA) technology as a core, and the OFDMA ensures orthogonality of subcarriers in a cell, but cannot naturally realize cell multiple access. If the same-frequency networking is adopted, the system faces serious inter-cell interference. This inter-cell interference has a severe impact on the capacity and performance of the system, especially at the cell edge.
The LTE-a is an IMT-a candidate proposed by the 3GPP on the basis of the LTE, and the LTE is a "quasi 4G" technology proposed by the 3GPP under the development trend of "mobile communication broadband", and adopts advanced wireless transmission technologies such as orthogonal frequency division multipl mutexing (OFDM) and Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO), and has a flat network structure and an all-IP system architecture. Compared with 3G technology, LTE is a 'change', and LTE-A is smooth evolution carried out on the basis of LTE, but has higher requirements on indexes than LTE. The interference coordination technology is introduced into the LTE-Advanced system, so that the inter-cell interference can be reduced, the coverage and throughput performance of the cell edge can be improved, and the user satisfaction of the cell edge can be improved.
In order to solve the problem of serious interference at the cell edge of the LTE/LTE-a system, 3GPP proposes various solutions, including interference randomization, interference cancellation, and interference coordination techniques. The interference randomization utilizes the statistical characteristics of the interference to suppress the interference, and the error is large. The interference cancellation technique can significantly improve the system performance at the cell edge and obtain higher spectral efficiency, but is not suitable for services with smaller bandwidth (such as VoIP), and is relatively complex to implement in the OFDMA system, and the subsequent research on it is not much. Inter-cell interference coordination (ICIC) is a hot spot of current research, can be realized through a self-organizing function, is applied to services of various bandwidths, and has a good effect on interference suppression.
Soft frequency reuse is an interference coordination scheme that can significantly improve cell edge throughput. The basic idea can be summarized as follows: the whole system bandwidth is divided into two parts, one part is used for a cell center user, and the frequency reuse factor is 1; the other part is used for cell edge users, the frequency reuse factor is larger than 1, and the edge resources of adjacent cells are mutually orthogonal, so that the transmitting power of the cell center resource is reduced, and the inter-cell interference suffered by the cell edge users can be reduced.
For example, the entire system bandwidth is divided into 3 sub-bands, where the sub-band transmit power for the center of the cell is lower and the sub-band transmit power at the cell edge is higher. And, the subbands at the edges of adjacent cells are orthogonal to each other. The method has the advantages that the interference on the users with low received signal-to-noise ratio at the edge of the cell is from the low transmitting power resource of the adjacent cell, the interference is small, the signal-to-noise ratio of the users at the edge of the cell can be improved, and the throughput of the users at the edge of the cell is further improved.
The actual performance of the statically partitioned soft frequency reuse scheme is closely related to the parameter configuration thereof, and different parameter configurations, such as different inner ring radii or the transmission power of the inner ring, have great influence on the performance of the scheme. If the parameter setting is incorrect, the performance gain of the scheme is greatly reduced, and the system performance is seriously degraded.
Therefore, how to properly set the soft frequency reuse parameters according to the actual situation (for example, according to the geographical distribution of the users) so as to bring the performance gain of the cell edge users with the cost of less total throughput is a problem to be solved urgently.
