  • Publication number: 20140369311
    Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provide a multi-user interference suppression method, terminal and base station. The method includes performing layer mapping on and precoding service data of each of paired users to obtain precoded output data, mapping the precoded output data and a common pilot sequence to a port of an antenna array for sending to each user by using the antenna array. Correspondingly, the embodiments of the present invention further provide a data receiving method, base station and terminal. By using a common pilot sequence based on the paired users, the same pilot sequence is used for each user in the paired users of a cell or a collaborative area, which is different from the technical solution in the prior art where a user-specific pilot is used and pilots of different users are orthogonal.

  • Publication number: 20140302891
    Abstract: A method, device and system for regulating power consumption are provided in the embodiments of the present invention. A method for regulating power consumption includes: obtaining, by a base station, an application point and a configuration parameter; sending, by the base station, an indication message to a terminal according to the application point and configuration parameter; regulating, by the base station, the power consumption of the base station by using the configuration parameter at the application point; the configuration parameter comprises cell antenna information or system bandwidth information; the indication message instructs the terminal to use the configuration parameter at the application point. Under the condition that user's normal communication is remained, the number of cell antennas or the cell bandwidth is dynamically changed. This reduces the power consumption of the network device.
