Measurement of received power and received quality in a wireless communication network

摘要

Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide techniques and apparatuses for wireless communications. According to certain aspects, a set of protected resources, allocated to a base station of a first cell, that are protected by restricting transmissions of a second cell is determined and received power of a first reference signal from the base station in the set of resources is measured. According to certain aspects, a subset of one or more neighbor base stations that have reduced interference in a set of protected resources is determined and received power measurements for the subset of neighbor cells is excluded when calculating receive signal quality measurements for the subframe.

1. A method for wireless communication, comprising:
determining a set of protected resources, allocated to a first base station, that are protected by restricting transmissions of an interfering base station; identifying the interfering base station prohibited from transmitting data in the set of protected resources; estimating interference due to a second reference signal from the interfering base station in the set of protected resources; subtracting the estimated interference from a received signal to obtain an interference-canceled signal; and measuring received power of a first reference signal from the first base station in the set of protected resources, wherein the measuring is based on the interference-canceled signal.
