Systems and methods for interference avoidance channel sounding and other signaling for multi user full duplex transmission

摘要

System and method embodiments are provided for transmission and reception scheduling for wireless devices in a multi user full duplex transmission environment. The embodiments enable interference avoidance between neighboring wireless devices. The system and method also enable channel sounding. In an embodiment a method for scheduling transmissions in a multi user wireless system includes determining by a transmission point neighboring wireless devices for each of a plurality of wireless devices located within a coverage area of the transmission point and determining by the transmission point a transmission schedules for respective ones of the plurality of wireless devices according to the neighboring information of the devices such that each respective wireless device is scheduled to transmit data over different time frequency resources than those in which neighboring wireless devices of the respective wireless device are scheduled to receive data.
