  • Publication number: 20120002662
    Abstract: The present invention discloses a method and an apparatus for coexistence of multiple operating entity systems, where the method includes: setting part or all of bandwidths of an operating entity in uplink timeslots of a downlink carrier frequency interference region to be in an idle state. By using the present invention, the uplink timeslots of the operating entity in the downlink carrier frequency interference region are set to be in an idle state and do not transmit an uplink transmit signal any longer, which prevents a downlink transmit signal of another operating entity from interfering with an uplink transmit signal of the operating entity.

  • Publication number: 20120004007
    Abstract: A method for power control includes: if a downlink serving Access Point (AP) of a User Equipment (UE) is different from an uplink serving AP of the UE, sending, by a base station, downlink signaling to the UE so that the UE adjusts uplink transmitting power according to the downlink signaling. In addition, the present invention discloses an apparatus and a network device for power control.

  • Publication number: 20110235603
    Abstract: A method, a network device, and a system for determining resource mapping in CoMP transmission are disclosed. The method includes: the cooperative cells that perform CoMP transmission for a UE negotiate a mapping rule used by the cooperative cells when the status of the CoMP transmission of the UE changes, where the mapping rule includes the number of and position of OFDM symbols allocated to a PDCCH domain and/or a data channel domain; and the negotiated mapping rule is notified to the UE. In this embodiment, before the downlink signals are transmitted, the mapping rule used by each cooperative cell for CoMP transmission is negotiated between the cooperative cells, and therefore, the UE can accurately receive the signal sent by multiple cooperative cells and the performance of CoMP transmission in the system is improved.

  • Publication number: 20110170510
    Abstract: A method for mapping Access Points (APs) to cells includes: allocating multiple carriers to one AP if the AP serves different User Equipments (UEs) located in a same cell or different cells; and setting up a mapping relation between the AP, the multiple carriers, and the cells for the AP, so as to map the AP to the same cell or different cells through the multiple carriers. In the embodiments of the present invention, the APs in different cells serve the same UE based on the same carrier, which is equivalent to converting inter-cell coordination into intra-cell coordination, thus reducing signaling overheads and simplifying the Coordinated Multi-Point (CoMP) transmitting and CoMP receiving.
