METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR CELL SELECTION AND HANDOVER IN LTE-ADVANCED HETEROGENEOUS NETWORKS |
摘要 |
Example implementations are directed to systems and methods based on physical broadcast channel (PBCH) muting are utilized to avoid frequent cell selection/reselection and handover in a LTE-advanced heterogeneous network. In the example implementations, a pico eNB that is fully covered by a macro eNB or other pico eNBs transmits blank PBCH such that it is inaccessible to the UEs who perform cell selection/reselection. Furthermore, a macro eNB may handover a UE to the inaccessible pico eNB by signalling the necessary information to the UE to detect the inaccessible pico eNB. Frequent cell selection/reselection and handover may therefore be avoided in a dense deployment situation. |

1. A base station, comprising:
a memory configured to store information for a user equipment (UE) to connect to a cell formed by the base station; and a signal processing module configured to transmit a frame to the UE and to mute the stored information transmitted with the frame, based on a condition. |
