Interference mitigation for aerial vehicles in wireless communications

摘要

A method for mitigating interference in communications between a plurality of wireless communications devices wherein at least a first wireless communications device is moving within a Radio Access Network, the method comprising: identifying the first moving wireless device to be an aerial device, such as a drone, based on one or a combination of an Interference Coordination method; a beam forming and steering process and one or more of a collection of criteria indicating a location of the first moving device. The method may comprise increasing or decreasing power of signals or muting one or more interfering cells in the network. The aerial device may be capable of beam forming or steering. The aerial device may include a plurality of antennae.
