Abstract
An apparatus and method for providing a resource allocation of a Base Station (BS) in a mobile communication system includes, when a Mobile Station (MS) is located in a cell boundary region, locating a transmission frame region for the MS in a duty cycle reduction region.
Claims15
A method for allocating resources by a Base Station (BS) configured for wireless communication in a cell, the method comprising:
- receiving a plurality of frames, each frame having at least one duty cycle reduction region that is used for when a Mobile Station (MS) is located in a cell boundary region and at least one conventional region that is used for when the MS is located in a cell center region, wherein beamforming is performed during the duty cycle reduction region to reduce interference.
A Base Station (BS) apparatus for allocating a resource in a mobile communication system, comprising:
- a controller for providing in a duty cycle reduction region in a transmission frame when a mobile station (MS) is located in a cell boundary region, and for providing a conventional region in the transmission frame when the MS is located in a cell center region;
- and
- a modem for transmitting the transmission frame, wherein the MS performs beamforming during the duty cycle reduction region during which a frequency reuse scheme is employed.
A communication method for use in a Mobile Station (MS), the method comprising,
- receiving a transmission frame from a base station, the transmission frame having at least one duty cycle reduction region that is used for when the MS is located in a cell boundary region and at least one conventional region that is used for when the MS is located in a cell center region, and performing beamforming to receive the transmission frame.
A Mobile Station (MS) for receiving a transmission frame in a mobile communication system, the apparatus comprising:
- a plurality of antennas;
- a receiver coupled to the plurality of antennas to receive a plurality of transmission frame, each frame having at least one duty cycle reduction region that is used for when the MS is located in a cell boundary region and at least one conventional region that is used for when the MS is located in a cell center region, a controller for receiving the transmission frame by using Zero Forcing (ZF) beamforming during duty cycle reduction region;
- and
- a modem for demodulating and decoding the received transmission frame.
