Apparatus and method for mobile assisted reverse link interference management

摘要

Techniques are provided for mobile assisted reverse link interference management. For example, a method for providing mobile assisted reverse link (RL) interference management includes requesting at least one pilot strength measurement from a user device. The method may include receiving at least one macrocell pilot strength measurement or femtocell pilot or beacon strength measurement from the user device in response to the request. The method may include determining a data rate allocation for the user device based at least in part on the at least one macrocell pilot strength measurement or femtocell pilot or beacon strength measurement. The method may include transmitting the data rate allocation to the user device, thereby controlling RL interference caused by the user device to at least one non-serving cell.

1. A method for providing mobile assisted reverse link (RL) interference management comprising:
receiving, at a user device, a request from a source cell for at least one pilot strength measurement from the user device; in response to the request, sending from the user device, at least one macrocell pilot strength measurement or femtocell pilot or beacon strength measurement to the source cell, wherein the sending of the at least one macrocell pilot strength measurement or femtocell pilot or beacon strength measurement causes the source cell to determine a data rate allocation for the user device based at least in part on the at least one macrocell pilot strength measurement or femtocell pilot or beacon strength measurement to control RL interference caused by the user device to at least one non-serving cell; receiving, at the user device, the data rate allocation from the source cell; and adjusting, by the user device, one or more of a traffic power level or a data rate transmission based on the received data rate allocation from the source cell to control the RL interference to the at least one non-serving cell.
