Abstract: A method and an apparatus for testing a throughout of a wireless access point apparatus are provided. The apparatus includes a receiver which is configured to receive a test start request signal and a test packet transmission condition change request signal, a test signal generator which is configured to generate a test packet signal; a transmission condition adjuster configured to adjust the transmission condition of the test packet signal; a transmitter configured to transmit the test packet signal to the neighboring access point apparatus under the transmission condition, which is adjusted by the transmission condition adjuster; and a test executor configured to execute a test having a predetermined sequence so as to execute a throughput test for the neighboring access point apparatus with regards to receiving the test packet signal.

Abstract: Provided are apparatus and method for controlling handover to prevent femtocell interference. The apparatus may include an event receiving module, a handover determining module, and an inter-frequency processing module. The event receiving module may be configured to receive a control message from user equipment. The handover determining module may be configured to analyze the received control message and determine whether the control message includes a request of inter-cell handover from a first cell base station of the first cell to a second cell base station of one of the second cells. The inter-frequency processing module may be configured to perform inter-frequency handover using an unshared frequency when the handover determining module determines that the control message includes the request of inter-cell handover.

Abstract: Described embodiments provide for handover in a long term evolution (LTE) communication network. A LTE macrocell base station may receive a measurement report from user equipment while providing a communication service to the user equipment located within a service area of the LTE macrocell base station, and determine whether or not the neighbor cell is a LTE macrocell or a LTE femtocell based on the measurement report. The LTE macrocell base station may initiate hand-over of the user equipment to a neighbor WCDMA macrocell base station when the neighbor cell is determined as the LTE femtocell.

Abstract: Provided are apparatus and method for setting a cyclic prefix length according to a type of a base station. The apparatus may include a memory, a receiver, a selector, and an inserter. The receiver may be configured to store and to manage a plurality of prefix lengths associated with base station types. The receiver may be configured to receive base station information from a base station. The selector may be configured to select a prefix length from the plurality of prefix length based on the received base station information. The inserter may be configured to insert a cyclic prefix having the determined prefix length in a guard interval of a transmission frame.
