Abstract

Example embodiments are directed to methods of reducing interference in a wireless communication system. In at least one example embodiment, a method includes first determining (S360), by a first transmitter having a multi - directional antenna configured to produce a plurality of beams, at least one interference level of at least one interfering beam of a plurality of beams of at least one transmitter in the communication system, second determining (S340) a transmitting beam pattern based on the interference level, the transmitting beam pattern indicating a sequence of illuminating the plurality of beams at corresponding time slots, third determining (S345) a fractional frequency reuse pattern based on the transmitting beam pattern, and transmitting data (S350) based on the transmitting beam pattern and the frequency reuse pattern.

Description

[0001] priority statement [0002] This application claims the benefit of US Provisional Application No. 61 / 299,195, filed January 28, 2010, which is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety. Background technique [0003] Due to the heavily scattered environment of wireless channels in indoor high data rate wireless systems, the reduced cell size and the distance between adjacent base stations (BSs), different transmitter-receiver pairs may strongly interfere with each other. This strong interference can severely limit the performance of the wireless system. [0004] In environments with a lot of scattering, such as outdoor-to-indoor or indoor environments, it is more difficult to resolve wireless interference. The difficulty is caused by scattering and reflections of the transmitted signal in multiple directions, which in turn can increase interference and severely degrade the performance (eg, spectral efficiency, system / user throughput) of the wireless system.
