The present invention relates to a method and device for inter-cluster cooperative communication in a mobile communication system. A central unit operating method for inter-cluster cooperative communication in a mobile communication system comprises processes comprising: a process of receiving channel data from serving sectors in a serving cluster; a process of respectively receiving the magnitude of change of a target function for scheduling depending on whether the serving sector is blank, from neighboring sectors in neighboring clusters of the serving cluster; and a process of determining the blank pattern of the serving cluster, by using the channel data received from the serving sectors, and the magnitude of change of the target function received from the neighboring sectors in neighboring clusters.

Method and device for inter-cluster cooperative communication in mobile communication system

A method and apparatus for controlling uplink transmission power in a mobile communication system are provided. In the method, an Advanced Mobile Station (AMS) determines uplink transmission power based on a measured path loss, an uplink noise and interference level received from an Advanced Base Station (ABS), a target Signal-to-Noise and Interference Ratio (SINR), and an offset. An initial offset value is determined based on a number of retransmissions of an initial ranging code performed until an initial ranging process is completed, a transmission power unit used for retransmission of the initial ranging code, and a power correction value received from the ABS upon completion of the initial ranging process with the ABS.

A method and an apparatus maximize the capacity of a wireless communication network by taking into consideration inter-cell interference coordination. A home cell's capacity sensitivity to interference is calculated. At least one neighbor cell's capacity sensitivity to interference is collected. And at least one UE located in the home cell is scheduled based on the home cell's capacity sensitivity and the neighbor cell's capacity sensitivity. Accordingly, it is possible to achieve power and allocation control to maximize the capacity of the overall network including neighbor cells increase the system capacity in a cellular system in which inter-cell interference is large, and adaptively perform a UE scheduling in real time to changing distribution of UEs because information on a change in the capacity of each cell is shared by periods.

An apparatus is operable to control power of a base station in a distributed Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO) wireless communication system. At least one beamforming matrix is used for processing transmission signals to terminals included in a terminal set for a multiple access is determined. Minimum power values required for satisfying a minimum transmission rate of the terminals are determined. Whether optimum power values exist is determined using the minimum power values, the beamforming matrix, and a limit transmission power of the base station. When the optimum power values exist, transmission power values for respective terminals are determined in a range meeting the limit transmission power of the base station.

A scheduling method in a wireless communication includes receiving a Channel Quality Indicator (CQI) from a plurality of terminals. The method also includes determining an average transmission rate of each terminal based on the CQI by approximating an instantaneous transmission rate distribution to a Gaussian distribution. The method further includes determining a weight of each terminal such that the average transmission rate of each terminal satisfies a target transmission rate. The method also includes selecting a terminal set by applying the determined weight. Thus, it is possible to control the fairness between the terminals and to efficiently control the transmission rate of the terminals according to the required transmission rate and the channel environment of the terminals.

An apparatus and method controls transmission power by a Base Station (BS) of a wireless communication system by considering a path loss between the BS and a terminal and interference affecting adjacent cells. A receiver receives information about interference from adjacent BSs and a terminal. A calculator calculates transmission power of the terminal using the information about interference received from the adjacent BSs and the terminal. The information about interference received from the adjacent BSs comprises Noise & Interference (NI) values, and the information about interference received from the terminal includes a path loss value.

An apparatus and a method for acquiring initial synchronization in a wireless communication system based on Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) are provided. The apparatus includes a frame synchronizer for acquiring frame synchronization using a preamble signal, a first offset determiner for determining a first time offset and a first frequency offset based on the frame synchronization, a preamble identifier estimator for estimating a preamble identifier in a receive signal interpolated with the first time offset and the first frequency offset, and a second offset determiner for generating a first preamble signal and a first pilot signal corresponding to the preamble identifier, for derandomizing a preamble signal and a pilot signal, and for determining a second time offset and a second frequency offset. Thus, the initial synchronization acquisition time in a low Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR) environment can be reduced.

A multicarrier communication system is provided that divides a full frequency band into a plurality of sub-carrier frequency bands, generates a plurality of segments having a frequency-time domain occupied by a predetermined number of sub-frequency bands and a predetermined number of time intervals, and classifies a plurality of segment types according to each of the segments, for data transmission. A mobile subscriber (MS) measures a channel state, extracts channel state information corresponding to the channel state, estimates a segment type using the extracted channel state information, and if there is a need for a change in the segment type, the MS transmits a segment type change request message to a base station (BS). Upon receiving a segment type change grant message from the BS, the MS receives data in a segment type corresponding to the received message.
