Interference management employing fractional time reuse

摘要

Interference that occurs during wireless communication may be managed through the use of fractional reuse and other techniques. In some aspects fractional reuse may relate to HARQ interlaces, portions of a timeslot, frequency spectrum, and spreading codes. Interference may be managed through the use of a transmit power profile and/or an attenuation profile. Interference also may be managed through the use of power management-related techniques.

主权项

1. A method of communication, comprising:
identifying a first portion of a downlink timeslot that will be used by an access point to transmit and a second portion of the downlink timeslot that will employ selective transmission by the access point to transmit in order to mitigate downlink interference; and sending an indication of the first and/or second portion to the access point as an instruction to employ the selective transmission by puncturing the second portion of the downlink timeslot during transmission to remove one or more parity bits from an error correcting code used for the transmission.
