COORDINATION GROUP FORMATION AND SCHEME SELECTION IN THE PRESENCE OF MULTI-LINK DEVICES

摘要

Provided is a control apparatus and a control method for a wireless communication system. The control apparatus is configured to determine for candidate group(s) of access points whether backhaul link feature(s) meet a requirement for coordinated communication with a terminal device. The requirement for coordinated communication includes a requirement for multi-link operation and/or a requirement for a coordination scheme. Based on a result of this determination, a candidate group of access points is selected as a group of APs for serving the terminal device in coordinated communication. By disclosing these techniques, the present disclosure provides for considering multi-link operation and/or coordination scheme selection in coordinated communication.
