Apparatus and method for allocating sounding sequences in a broadband wireless communication system

摘要

A method and apparatus enhances sounding performance for a broadband wireless communication system of a multi-cell environment. A grouping part groups a plurality of sounding sequences to a plurality of sequence groups. A first determiner determines a correlation between the sequence groups. A second determiner determines a least interference relation between sectors in a cluster. An allocator allocates the sequence groups to the sectors based on the correlation between the sequence groups and the least interference relation between the sectors.
