Abstract: Embodiment herein provide a method and system of reporting cluster specific CSI feedback by user equipment (UE) to a cloud system. The UE associates with the cloud using a biased association or an unbiased association. In a biased association, a ratio between the highest received power from a Macro BS and a Pico base station is determined by the UE and compared with a threshold (bias). If the ratio is greater than the bias, the UE associates with the Pico BS. The UE reports CSI for a set of dominant Macro BSs and Pico BSs within a cluster. The UE can report the IDs of the BSs which contribute to dominant interference caused by the BSs of neighboring clusters.

The remote base station is configured for defining mutually exclusive entry and exit points for the antenna ports in at least one of time; or frequency.

Abstract: Embodiments disclosed herein reduce interference at pilot symbols and also enable good interference measurements by using a combination pilot tones and null tones along with null tones. In this type of system, the receivers estimate the channel state information without any strong interference from the neighboring transmitters, and at the same time it can also measure either the individual interference channel states or the interference covariances from the silent periods. It uses these measurements thus obtained to calculate the post processing SINR, and then compute and report the wideband and subband CQIs to the transmitter. The groups of transmitters are reused in geographically separated region using a frequency reuse structure. In a preferred implementation, pilot signal is precoded using a multi-antenna precoder. The precoder may be same for pilot and data.

Abstract: The embodiments herein disclose a method and system for interference cancellation in a Heterogeneous Network (HetNet) including a base station serving a User Equipment (UE), and a plurality of neighbor base stations. Further, the method includes sharing a parameter associated with the base station serving the UE and the plurality of neighbor base stations in the HetNet. Further, the method includes determining whether the UE is experiencing interference from the neighbor base station based on the parameters. Further, the method includes coordinating with the base station serving the UE to cancel the level of interference experienced by the UE based on the transmission mode associated with each base station serving the UE and the neighbor base station interfering at the UE. The transmission mode is one of a Single-Input and Multiple-Output (SIMO) and Multiple-Output and Multiple-Output (MIMO) mode.

Abstract: Precoding for multiple transmission streams in multiple antenna systems. Disclosed herein is a general method that transmits signal from multiple antennas using a one/two dimensional precoder. This precoder is fixed in a given resource block (RB) or slot, which is composed of P subcarriers and Q OFDM symbols (where the values for P and Q are greater than or equal to 1). The precoder in each resource block may take same or different values, which span the two dimensional time-frequency grid. The precoder is chosen as a function of either logical frequency index or physical frequency index of the RB.

Abstract: Cognitive interference management in Cellular wireless network with relays and micro/pico/femto cells operated in distributed scheduling mode. A cellular system may use RS to improve capacity or for coverage extension. ARS relays the signals between BS 104 and MS by using wireless links between BS-RS and RS-MS during both downlink and uplink transmissions. Embodiments herein disclose a mechanism to explicitly indicate to the MS whether the MAC management messages sent by the BS to the MS are to inform it to perform scanning for interference measurement. Also, disclosed herein is a mechanism to explicitly indicate to the BS whether the message sent by the MS is related to interference measurement.

Abstract: Embodiments herein provide methods and systems for enhancing interference mitigation using conjugate symbol repetition and phase randomization on a set of subcarriers. The repeated data tone in the signal is complex-conjugated before transmission, when the repetition factor is two. When the repetition factor is greater than two, a combination of conjugate repetition and random/deterministic phase variation of the repeated tones is used to mitigate the interference mitigation. Embodiments further disclose Collision Free Interlaced Pilot PRU Structures that can be used with or without conjugate symbol repetition and phase randomization for interference mitigation.

Abstract: An Ordered Reduced Set Successive Detector (RSSD) for the V-BLAST spatial multiplexing scheme that uses a general two-dimensional non-uniform set partitioning for different symbols. The detector provides improved diversity and SNR gains at reduced complexity compared to a uniform set partitioning based detector. The detector can be used to reduce the complexity, with a small tradeoff in performance. Further, it is possible to obtain a quasi-ML performance using the disclosed detector at a reduced, yet fixed, complexity.
