INTERFERENCE ESTIMATION IN A WIRELESS COMMUNICATION SYSTEM

摘要

Interference may be controlled by selectively blanking or attenuating transmit powers. A method of estimating interference caused by a transmitting entity in a wireless communication system comprises determining a desired level of accuracy in an interference estimate, determining a required number of blanks per subband set to achieve the desired level of accuracy, inserting the required number of blanks per subband set into a frequency hopping (FH) sequence, and transmitting according to the FH sequence.
