BUFFER-AWARE RADIO RESOURCE MANAGEMENT

摘要

Embodiments of a central processing unit and methods for supporting coordinated multi-point (CoMP) transmissions in a 3GPP LTE network with non-ideal backhaul links are generally described herein. In some embodiments, the CPU may be arranged for scheduling and assigning resources for subordinate enhanced node Bs (eNBs) over the backhaul links for CoMP transmissions. The scheduling may include an additional number of HARQ processes to compensate, at least in part, for backhaul link latency.
