METHOD AND DEVICE FOR UPLINK AND DOWNLINK INTER-CELL INTERFERENCE COORDINATION

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a method and a device for performing inter-cell interference coordination (ICIC) by a home evolved Node B (HeNB).SOLUTION: A portion of bandwidth (resources) is reserved for user equipment (UE) (404). Notification of the reserved portion of the bandwidth is sent to at least one potentially interfering evolved Node B (eNB) (406). Data exchange is performed with the UE by using the reserved portion of the bandwidth (408). Notification about releasing the reserved portion of the bandwidth is sent to the potentially interfering eNB (412).
