The present disclosure relates to a pre-5th-Generation (5G) or 5G communication system to be provided for supporting higher data rates Beyond 4th-Generation (4G) communication system such as Long Term Evolution (LTE). A device for performing load balancing in a wireless communication system, according to various embodiments of the disclosure, comprises a communication unit and at least one processor operably coupled with the communication unit, wherein the at least one processor is configured so as to transmit a control signal for changing a serving cell of a first terminal from a first cell to a second cell on the basis of first measurement information of the first terminal serviced by the first cell and second measurement information of a second terminal serviced by the second cell, and each piece of information may include a beam and receiving strength for a serving cell and a neighboring cell.

Device and method for load balancing in wireless communication system

A method of a base station (BS) in a wireless communication system is provided, The method comprises: receiving, from a user equipment (UE), a 1layer sounding reference signal (SRS); arranging the 1layer SRS based on two antenna polarizations of an antenna system of the BS; identifying a dominant direction of a channel based on the 1layer SRS; identifying a coefficient between two antenna polarizations based on the 1layer SRS; constructing a 2-layer channel matrix based on the identified dominant direction and the identified coefficient; and transmitting, to the UE, a downlink signal via the antenna system based on the constructed 2-layer channel matrix.

Rank-2 CSI construction with 1-layer SRS

Base station (BS) capable of beamforming in a wireless communication includes a transceiver comprising an antenna array, the transceiver configured to measure SRS from a UE, using at least one portion of the antenna array, and a processor configured to select at least one UL beam vector based on an SRS measurement from a UL beam-codebook comprising a set of beam weight vectors, determine at least one DL beam weight vector corresponding to each of the selected at least one UL beam weight vector, transmit a beamformed CSI-RS by applying the at least one DL beam weight vector to the antenna array, receive a CSI feedback including a PMI from the UE, wherein the PMI is determined based on the beamformed CSI-RS, and construct a precoding channel matrix for the UE based on the PMI and the at least one DL beam weight vector.

Precoding for advanced wireless communication systems

Methods, an apparatus, and a network manager for cooperative communication are provided. A method of communication by a serving base station performing a cooperative communication with a plurality of base stations includes selecting serving channel code information based on Channel Status Information (CSI) of the serving base station, receiving cooperating channel code information based on CSI of a cooperating base station from the cooperating base station performing the cooperative communication with the serving base station, determining a compensation parameter based on the serving channel code information and the cooperating channel code information, and determining a beamforming vector of the serving base station based on the compensation parameter.

System and method for the cooperation among base stations

A communication system to feed back an index of a precoding matrix is provided. A terminal may feed back an index of an optimal precoding matrix based on estimated channel status. A base station may transmit data to the terminal based on the index of the precoding matrix received from the terminal.

Devices and methods for transmitting and receiving data using precoding matrix

In the communications system of the present invention, a communications terminal determines a precoding matrix index in a pilot signal received through a specific downlink channel, examines channel quality information of the downlink channel according to the determined precoding matrix index, and transmits feedback information to a serving base station, which determines a priority factor by using the examined channel quality information, and compares the priority factor with other priority factors. The comparison is used such that a base station having a high priority suggests the use of the precoding matrix to the neighboring base station.

Communication system and method for communicating thereof

The present invention relates to a system and to a method for the cooperation among base stations, in which a communication service is provided to a plurality of communication terminals through the plurality of base stations. When channel state information of a communication terminal is acquired, a serving base station selects a serving channel code matching the channel state information from a codebook, calculates linear transform information using the serving channel code and the channel state information, and transmits the serving channel code to a cooperative base station. When the cooperative base station receives a cooperation channel code, the serving base station calculates serving weight information of the serving base station and cooperation weight information of the cooperative base station using the serving channel code and the cooperation channel code, and determines a beam forming vector by applying the linear transform information to the serving weight information. According to the present invention, the channel state information is linearly transformed before the base station transforms the channel state information into the channel code, to thereby predict a quantization loss between the channel state information and the channel code in the system for the cooperation among base stations. In addition, the base station may recover the quantization loss when communication service is provided in the system for the cooperation among base stations. This leads to improved cooperation performance among base stations in the system for the cooperation among base stations.

A cluster-based cooperative communication system and method is provided for mitigating inter-cell interference effectively. A cluster-based cooperative communication method of a mobile station includes receiving allocation of a resource of a weighted subband mapped to one of preset cooperative base station clusters, the selected cooperative base station cluster having a group including a serving base station of the mobile station and dominant interfering base stations found by channel estimation, and communicating with the serving base station in cooperation with the dominant interfering base stations.
