Abstract
A method of performing downlink measurement at a user equipment in a wireless communication system is described. Information indicating one or more subframes on which downlink measurement is to be performed is received from a base station. The downlink measurement is performed in the one or more subframes configured by the information. The one or more subframes are configured based on a subset of subframes with reduced activity of a neighbor base station which performs inter-cell interference coordination with the base station.
Claims8
A method of performing downlink measurement at a user equipment (UE) in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:
- receiving, by a receiver in the UE from a base station, information indicating one or more subframes on which downlink measurement is to be performed;
- and
- performing, by a processor in the UE, the downlink measurement in the one or more subframes configured by the information,
- wherein the one or more subframes are configured based on a subset of subframes with reduced activity of a neighbor base station which performs inter-cell interference coordination with the base station.
A method of supporting downlink measurement of a user equipment in a wireless communication system, the method performed by a base station and comprising:
- transmitting, by a transmitter in the base station to a user equipment, information indicating one or more subframes on which downlink measurement is to be performed;
- and
- receiving, by a receiver in the base station from the user equipment, a result of the downlink measurement performed in the one or more subframes configured by the information,
- wherein the one or more subframes are configured based on a subset of subframes with reduced activity of a neighbor base station which performs inter-cell interference coordination with the base station.
A user equipment for performing downlink measurement in a wireless communication system, the user equipment comprising:
- a reception module configured to receive a downlink signal from a base station;
- a transmission module configured to transmit an uplink signal to the base station;
- and
- a processor configured to control the reception module and the transmission module,
- wherein the processor is further configured to receive, from the base station through the reception module, information indicating one or more subframes on which downlink measurement is to be performed, and to perform the downlink measurement in the one or more subframes configured by the information, and
- wherein the one or more subframes are configured based on a subset of subframes with reduced activity of a neighbor base station which performs inter-cell interference coordination with the base station.
A base station for supporting downlink measurement of a user equipment in a wireless communication system, the base station comprising:
- a reception module configured to receive an uplink signal from the user equipment;
- a transmission module configured to transmit a downlink signal to the user equipment;
- and
- a processor configured to control the reception module and the transmission module,
- wherein the processor is further configured to transmit, to the user equipment through the transmission module, information indicating one or more subframes on which downlink measurement is to be performed, and to receive, from the user equipment through the reception module, a result of the downlink measurement performed in the one or more subframes configured by the information, and
- wherein the one or more subframes are configured based on a subset of subframes with reduced activity of a neighbor base station which performs inter-cell interference coordination with the base station.
