Abstract:
A method of supporting fast sub-cell switching by a sub-cell included in a macro coverage in a wireless communication system is provided. The method includes receiving multiple pieces of feedback information on multiple sub-cells from a User Equipment (UE), extracting channel quality indicators from the multiple pieces of received feedback information, respectively, comparing values of the extracted channel quality indicators, and determining, based on a result of the comparison of the values of the extracted channel quality indicators, whether to perform fast sub-cell switching of the UE.
