A computer-implemented method for associating users to transmission points over an uplink (UL) of a heterogeneous network (HetNet) is presented. The computer-implemented method includes communicating, via the processor, with a cluster of transmission points, associating each user to one transmission point within the cluster of transmission points by a two-stage procedure, and performing sub-frame scheduling independently by each transmission point within the cluster of transmission points over a set of users associated with.

A method is provided for performing downlink scheduling in Long Term Evolution-Advanced networks. The method includes assigning resource blocks and transmission modes to users such that (i) each of the users that is assigned at least one of the resource blocks is assigned only one transmission mode chosen from a finite set of transmission modes, (ii) a sum of normalized costs across all of the resource blocks that are assigned to the users is less than unity. The method further includes incorporating a resource block and transmission mode assignment for a user into downlink scheduler of a base station to cause the downlink scheduler to perform downlink scheduling in accordance with the resource block and transmission mode assignment.

Methods and systems for assigning users to nodes include assigning user devices to respective macro nodes in a wireless network. Each of the user devices is assigned to a respective pico node in the wireless network. Each respective pico node is associated with the same macro node that the respective user device is assigned to. Resource allocation fractions are assigned to all pico nodes and all macro nodes in the wireless network based on the assignment of each of the plurality of user devices respective macro nodes and pico nodes.

A computer-implemented method for establishing communication links in a millimeter wave (mmWave) network by solving a linear integer packing problem is presented. The computer-implemented method includes determining active communication links between a plurality of transmitters and a plurality of receivers, setting each active communication link to have any arbitrary chosen weight or priority, and setting a minimum link quality threshold for each active communication link and subjecting each active communication link to constraints. Detected phantom constraints are mitigated by introducing new constraints with binary coefficients and by modifying one or more existing constraints by setting a number of coefficients within the existing constraints to zero.

At a coarse time-scale, at the start of each frame the choice of TPs to be made active and users to associate with the active TPs are determined by solving an optimization problem. The inputs to the optimization problem are averaged slowly varying metrics that are relevant for a period longer than the backhaul latency. At a the fine time-scale, in each slot each active TP independently does scheduling over the set of users associated with it, without any coordination with any of the other active TPs, based on fast changing information, such as instantaneous rate or SINR estimates.

A method and transmitting device are provided for coordinated multi-point transmission scheduling by a transmitting device over one or more heterogeneous wireless networks that include a set of clusters. Each of the clusters has a set of transmission points for serving a set of user equipment devices. The method includes determining constraints imposed on any of the user equipment devices. The method further includes receiving channel state information feedback from the user equipment devices. The method also includes obtaining user weights and buffer sizes. The method additionally includes iteratively determining a weighted sum of user rates based on the constraints, the channel state information feedback, the user weights, and the buffer sizes. The iteratively determining step determines the weighted sum of user rates based on an initial weighted sum of user rates determined for the user equipment devices without the constraints.
摘要:
A system and method for resource management in a heterogeneous wireless network wherein the resources of the mobile communications system are managed on a coarse time-scale and a fine time-scale. The coarse time-scale management comprises a first stage of determining the user association for each of the plurality of TPs followed by a second stage of determining activation fractions for all TPs. The determining of the user association is performed by utilizing a GLS procedure having a Greedy Stage and a Local Search Stage. In the Greedy Stage, new user, TP pairs are analyzed and the pair with the greatest improvement in system utility is selected. In the Local Search Stage, potential swaps are analyzed and a pair offering the greatest improvement that exceeds a threshold is selected. The determining of activation fractions for all TPs is performed by utilizing an auxiliary function method.
