METHOD FOR SCHEDULING AND MU-MIMO TRANSMISSION OVER OFDM VIA INTERFERENCE ALIGNMENT BASED ON USER MULTIPATH INTENSITY PROFILE INFORMATION

摘要

A method and apparatus is disclosed herein for scheduling over ODFM via interference alignment based on multipath intensity profile information. In one embodiment, the method comprises grouping user terminals into groups based on their multipath intensity profiles, where at least one of the groups has two or more terminals; scheduling user terminal groups for MU-MIMO transmission; allocating OFDM resources to the user terminal groups for MIMO transmission; assigning MU-MIMO transmission codes to the user terminal groups; and performing MU-MIMO transmission of the user terminal groups using assigned MU-MIMO transmission codes.
