METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR ALLOCATING RADIO RESOURCES IN A WIRELESS COMMUNICATION SYSTEM

摘要

A method and apparatus is provided for allocating radio resource in a wireless communication system. The method includes, when a Mobile Station (MS), which sends a first Channel Quality Indicator (CQI) report through a CQI channel for a subchannel zone that uses a first frequency reuse factor, satisfies a predetermined condition, receiving from the MS a second CQI report even for a subchannel zone that uses a second frequency reuse factor; and deciding whether to allocate the subchannel zone that uses the second frequency reuse factor, based on the CQI reports. The present invention can properly allocate frequency resources to the MS using the frequency reuse factors thereby optimizing the entire capacity of the system.
