Abstract
The disclosure relates to a 5G or 6G communication system for supporting a higher data transmission rate. The present invention generally relates to the field of femtocell, and more specifically relates to a method and a system for forming a User Centric Cluster (UCC) for at least one Cell Free (CF) femtocell deployment.
Claims15
A method (1100) for forming a User Centric Cluster (UCC) for at least one Cell Free (CF) femtocell deployment, the method (1100) comprising:
- receiving (1101) one or more network parameters from a User Equipment (UE) (400) at a network entity (300), wherein the network entity (300) comprises at least one of multiple Transmission Reception Points (TRPs) and a TRP Controller (TRP-C),
- wherein the one or more network parameters comprise Channel State Information Reference Signal (CSI-RS) information, Transmission Configuration Indicator (TCI) state measurement information, Uplink (UL) pilot signal information, and location sensing information;
- processing (1102) the one or more received network parameters at the network entity (300) comprising a centralized processing at the TRP-C and a localized processing at each TRP associated with the multiple TRPs;
- and
- forming (1103) the UCC for the at least one CF femtocell deployment based on at least one of the centralized processing at the TRP-C and the localized processing at the multiple TRPs.
A system (301) for forming a User Centric Cluster (UCC) for at least one Cell Free (CF) femtocell deployment, wherein the system (301) comprising:
- a memory (310);
- a communicator (330);
- and
- a processor (320), operably connected to the memory (310) and the communicator (330), the processor (320) is configured to:
- receive one or more network parameters from a User Equipment (UE) (400) at a network entity (300), wherein the network entity (300) comprises at least one of multiple Transmission Reception Points (TRPs) and a TRP Controller (TRP-C),
- wherein the one or more network parameters comprise Channel State Information Reference Signal (CSI-RS) information, Transmission Configuration Indicator (TCI) state measurement information, Uplink (UL) pilot signal information, and location sensing information;
- process the one or more received network parameters at the network entity (300) comprising a centralized processing at the TRP-C and a localized processing at each TRP associated with the multiple TRPs;
- and
- form the UCC for the at least one CF femtocell deployment based on at least one of the centralized processing at the TRP-C and the localized processing at the multiple TRPs.
