異種ネットワークにおけるセル間干渉調整方法および異種ネットワーク

摘要

Provided are a method for coordinating inter-cell interference in a heterogeneous network (HetNet) and the heterogeneous network. The method includes: forming M normal base stations and low-power nodes within coverage of the respective normal base stations in the heterogeneous network into a coordinated group; combining mute/non-mute states of bandwidths of the M normal base stations to obtain a plurality of states of the coordinated group; a user of each of the normal base stations feeding at least one first CQI back to the normal base station; a user of each of the low-power nodes feeding one or more second CQIs back to the low-power node; using the first CQI and the second CQIs as a basis to make capacity estimation of the coordinated group; and setting the mute/non-mute states of the bandwidths of the M normal base stations in accordance with a state of the coordinated group corresponding to an optimal system capacity so as to perform data transmission. In the method for coordinating interference provided by the present invention, M transmission points each including one or more normal base stations and low-power nodes covered by the respective normal base stations can be formed into a coordinated group, thereby extending processing for the normal base stations up to all the transmission points in the coordinated group.
