Apparatus, system and method for autonomous management of communication resources reverse link in a system of distributed communications.

摘要

A method, performed in a base station functioning as a base station not in service for at least one mobile station served by another base station, for allocating reverse link resources to mobile stations served by the base station in a communication system station distributed basis, the method comprising: measuring coupled load parameters of reverse link transmissions of at least one mobile station served by another base station; calculating an expected coupled load estimated due to reverse link transmissions of at least one mobile station based on the coupled load parameters; allocating resources on the reverse link to other mobile stations served by the base according to the expected coupled load estimated station; in which the allocation of reverse link includes scheduling transmission rates of data to other mobile stations served by the base station to create a total reverse link load due to other mobile stations in the base station does not exceed the difference of the total capacity of the base station and the estimated expected coupled load; wherein the estimating comprises calculating a previous coupled load due to reverse link transmissions of at least one mobile station based on the coupled load parameters measured during a previous transmission; and calculate the expected coupled load estimated based on the previous coupled load; wherein, calculating estimated expected coupled load comprises calculating the estimated expected coupled load to be equal to the previous coupled load; wherein the calculating the previous coupled load comprises calculating a plurality of previous coupled loads; and wherein calculating the estimated expected coupled load further comprises calculating a total expected coupled load of the plurality of averaged previous coupled loads.
