基于部分频率复用的多小区协作方案及容量分析

针对无线蜂窝网中的小区间干扰问题,给出一种基于部分频率复用的多小区协作传输方案.该方案将小区用户划分为中心用户和边缘用户,中心用户采用频率复用因子为1的本地基站通信,边缘用户采用频率复用因子为3的多基站协作通信,并通过对多个小区的基站进行功率控制,达到抑制小区间干扰、提高系统容量的目的.数值分析表明,相对于传统多小区蜂窝系统(Traditional Multi-Cell System,TMCS)和广义分布式天线系统(Generalized Distributed Antenna System,GDAS),所提多小区协作蜂窝系统(Multi-Cell Cooperative System,MCCS)可以有效地克服小区间干扰,提高系统容量.     

基于干扰泄露控制和深度学习的分布式多点协作传输设计与优化

分布式多点协作传输在提升小区边缘用户的服务质量和系统频谱效率上具有巨大潜力，但通常站间频繁交换大量信息才能接近集中式多点协作传输的性能。然而，在实际无线通信系统中，考虑到信道时变性，频繁的信息交换和站间有限的回传带宽导致的较大时延给分布式多点协作传输技术带来严重的性能损失，因此其目前未得到广泛部署。为解决此问题，提出了一种新颖的信号质量衡量标准，称为信号平均泄漏加干扰噪声比（SALINR）。基于SALINR的设计使得站间无需信息交换即可实现完全分布式的联合传输。具体地，展示了基于SALINR的传输设计问题可以通过分式规划技术有效求解；进一步地，利用深度展开技术来设计波束赋形向量学习网络，从而有效减少计算复杂度。仿真结果表明，所提出的方法可接近集中式多点协作传输的性能且具有计算高效的优点。

On Coordinated Multi-point Transmission with Partial Channel State Information Via Delayed Feedback

Coordinated multi-point transmission (CoMP) is considered as a strategic approach to handle inter-cell interference, hence increasing spectral efficiency in interference-limited cellular networks. This paper studies a CoMP downlink transmission with delayed and quantized channel state information feedback through a capacity-limited uplink channel. The delay effects and quantization error as well as large scale path loss potentially degrade entire network performance. Under this consideration, we first characterize the system performance in terms of achievable rate for two typical CoMP techniques, namely joint processing (JP) and coordinated beamforming (CBF), in a multi-cell network. Accurate closed-form expressions are derived for evaluating the CoMP performance. Based on the derived results, an adaptive transmission strategy of switching between JP and CBF is proposed to maximize the system throughput and the operating regions of the two schemes are provided under different system setup parameters. Simulation verifies that the superiority of JP or CBF depends on system parameters including feedback delay, codebook size as well as CoMP user locations.

Multi-beam cooperative frequency reuse for coordinated multi-point transmission

Coordinated multi-point (CoMP) joint transmission is considered in the 3rd generation partnership project (3GPP) long term evolution (LTE)-advanced as a key technique to mitigate inter-cell interference and improve the cell-edge performance. To effectively apply CoMP joint transmission, efficient frequency reuse schemes need to be designed to support resource management cooperation among coordinated cells. However, most of the existing frequency reuse schemes are not suitable for CoMP systems due to not considering multi-point joint transmission scenarios in their frequency reuse rules. In addition, the restrictions of frequency resources in those schemes result in a high blocking probability. To solve the above two problems, a multi-beam cooperative frequency reuse (MBCFR) scheme is proposed in this paper, which reuses all the available frequency resources in each sector and supports multi-beam joint transmission for cell-edge users. Besides, the blocking probability is proved to be efficiently reduced. Moreover, a frequency-segment-sequence based MBCFR scheme is introduced to further reduce the inter-cell interference. System level simulations demonstrate that the proposed scheme results in higher cell-edge average throughput and cell-average throughput with lower blocking probability.

针对非理想定时同步的多模协作多点传输

针对非理想定时同步对协作多点传输的负面影响,提出了多模协作多点传输算法。通过推导协作波束成形模式和联合处理模式在非理想定时同步条件下的平均可达速率,得到模式选择变量和模式选择门限。在多模协作多点传输算法中,用户首先对定时同步误差进行估计,并计算其模式选择变量和模式选择门限。然后用户选择协作多点传输的下行传输模式,并将其选择结果反馈给协作基站。最后,根据各用户的反馈,协作基站以最大化平均可达传输速率为准则,自适应地在协作波束成形模式和联合处理模式之间切换。仿真结果表明多模协作多点传输算法在定时同步误差较小时,采用联合处理模式,以保持空间复用增益,在定时同步误差较大时,采用协作波束成形模式,以避免用户间的额外干扰。因此,在非理想定时同步误差条件下,多模协作多点传输算法比仅采用协作波束成形模式或联合处理模式的传统协作多点传输算法具有更好的性能。     

Research on uplink coordinated transmission schemes in LTE-advanced systems

The investigation of inter-cell interference mitigation techniques is a key area in wireless communications.Coordinated multiple points(CoMP) transmission/reception is a candidate technique for interference cancellation in 3GPP LTE-Advanced system.However,the coordination scheme in CoMP remains a key research problem to be solved,which will have a strong influence on the performance of CoMP.In this paper,a novel coordinated transmission scheme is proposed for the uplink LTE-Advanced system.In our scheme,several base transceiver stations(BTS) and users are selected as coordination partners which form a CoMP cluster.Joint processing is used at the receiver to mitigate interference.From the perspective of coordinated partner selection,our scheme can be divided into static and dynamic coordination which are both considered to fully exploit the throughput gain of CoMP.The proposed schemes are evaluated by system level simulation and compared with the conventional LTE system based upon single cell processing.Our simulation results demonstrate that the proposed schemes attain superior performance as opposed to the conventional system in terms of cell average and cell edge throughput.     

Affinity Propagation Based CoMP Clusters for Dense Small Cell Networks with Backhaul Constraints

Dense small cells have been considered as a promising solution for improving system throughput in 5G networks. When a large number of small cells are overlapped, serious inter-cell interference (ICI) becomes one of the major technical challenges. Coordinated multi-point (CoMP) is an effective technology to mitigate ICI. In this paper, we study affinity propagation based CoMP cluster for dense small cell networks with backhaul constrains. The graph based static clusters and affinity propagation based clusters are formed so as to achieve good performance and reduce complexity. By taking into account the hybrid CoMP mode, the optimal problem which maximizes the system throughput with the limit-capacity backhaul has been formulated. An effective hybrid CoMP cluster strategy is gained by solving the optimal problem. The simulation results demonstrate that the proposed scheme could enhance average throughput.

Dynamic Cooperative Base Station Selection Scheme for Downlink CoMP in LTE-Advanced Networks

Coordinated Multi-Point (CoMP) transmission is a technique proposed to enhance the spectral efficiency and system throughput in an interference limited cellular networks. In CoMP joint processing (JP) scheme multiple base stations (BSs) are coordinately transmit data streams to each user. As more than two base stations are involved, abundant spatial resources are exploited and more backhaul spectrum for JP cooperation is required. The backhaul architecture for CoMP JP is crucial to provide low latency, unlimited capacity, less power consumption, and perfect synchronization among the BSs. However, satisfying all these constraints is impossible as the number of cooperative BSs increases for each user. In this paper, a dynamic cooperative base station selection scheme is proposed to reduce the backhaul load for CoMP user by selecting the appropriate number of coordinated BSs from the CoMP cluster to ensure the certain quality of service (QoS). In particular, for cell edge user the number of cooperative BSs per user has been selected in order to achieve reduced overhead and the allocation of backhaul capacity is performed under the max–min fairness criterion. Simulation results show that the proposed selection scheme achieves significant performance improvement than other transmission modes in terms of the average sum rate per backhaul use and minimal total power consumption.
