Abstract
A base station encodes antenna configuration information of a neighboring cell of a first cell, and sends encoded information relating to the antenna configuration information of the neighboring cell to a user equipment (UE). The UE is capable of communicating with the base station in the first cell. The UE receives the encoded information; decodes the antenna configuration information of the neighboring cell from the encoded information; and performs determination of predetermined time-frequency resource according to the antenna configuration information of the neighboring cell. The predetermined time-frequency resource is used by a base station of the neighboring cell for transmitting pilot measurement information.
Claims20
A method for information transmission, comprising:
- receiving, by a terminal device in a first cell, a message comprising encoded comprehensive antenna configuration information;
- and
- obtaining, by the terminal device, comprehensive antenna configuration information through decoding the encoded comprehensive antenna configuration information in the message, wherein the comprehensive antenna configuration information indicates antenna configuration of one or more neighboring cells of the first cell.
A terminal device served by a first cell, comprising:
- a processor and a memory unit storing program codes for execution by the processor;
- wherein the program codes, when executed by the processor, cause the terminal device to:
- receive a message comprising encoded comprehensive antenna configuration information;
- and
- obtain comprehensive antenna configuration information through decoding the encoded comprehensive antenna configuration information in the message, wherein the comprehensive antenna configuration information indicates antenna configuration of one or more neighboring cells of the first cell.
A communication system, comprising:
- a base station of a first cell, and a terminal device served by the first cell;
- wherein the base station is configured to:
- encode comprehensive antenna configuration information, and
- send a message comprising the encoded comprehensive antenna configuration information to the terminal device according to a pilot design principle, wherein the comprehensive antenna configuration information indicates antenna configuration of one or more neighboring cells of the first cell;
- and
- wherein the terminal device is configured to:
- receive the message, and
- obtain the comprehensive antenna configuration information through decoding the encoded comprehensive antenna configuration information in the message.
