  • Divide-and-conquer approach to mitigating relay-to-relay interference
    Patent number: 9503174
    Abstract: An apparatus and a method are described, by which interference related detection results of a plurality of relay nodes are obtained, wherein each relay node to the radio access network, wherein a connection between the relay node and its serving access node is an access node—relay node connection. The relay nodes are grouped according to the obtained detection results such that the access node—relay node connection can be configured for each group in order to mitigate interference to mitigate interference between transmissions to and from different relay nodes in each group.
    Type: Grant

  • Relay-to-relay interference coordination in a wireless communication network
    Patent number: 9154987
    Abstract: A method includes receiving neighbor cell measurement results at a first relay node, the results originating from mobile device(s) located in a communications coverage area of the first relay node and that are served by the first relay node. Using the received neighbor cell measurement results, an amount of interference is estimated that is experienced by the first relay node due to operation of a second relay node. An interference report is sent that includes an indication of the estimated amount of interference from the first relay node to a network access node that serves the second relay node. The interference report is sent over a wireless link between the first relay node and the network access node that serves the first relay node, and from the network access node that serves the first relay node to the network access node that serves the second relay node.
