초록

본 논문은 다중 셀 상향링크 네트워크에서 사용자의 신호 대 발생 간섭 및 잡음비 (SGINR)를 최대화하기 위하여 간섭인지 및 전력제어 기술을 이용한 분산 스케쥴링 방식을 제안한다. 먼저 시분할 시스템의 상호 호환성 특성을 이용하여 각 사용자는 인접 기지국으로부터 받은 파일럿 신호를 통하여 채널을 습득하고 데이터 전송 시 인접 셀 기지국들에 미칠 간섭을 각자 계산할 수 있다고 가정한다. 제안한 스케쥴링은 사용자가 인접 셀 기지국에 미치는 간섭의 양을 계산하여 미리 결정된 임계값보다 클 경우 자기 신호의 송신 전력을 낮추는 전력 제어 알고리즘을 이용하여 사용자를 분산적으로 선택한다. 제안한 기법의 상향링크 데이터 전송률은 기존의 사용자 스케쥴링 알고리즘들에 비하여 월등히 좋은 성능을 보인다.

In this paper, we propose a distributed user scheduling with interference-aware power control (IAPC) to maximize signal to generating interference plus noise ratio (SGINR) in uplink multi-cell networks. Assuming that the channel reciprocity time-division duplexing (TDD) system is used, the channel state information (CSI) can be obtained at each user from pilot signals from other BSs. In the proposed scheduling, to be specific, each user reduces the transmit power if its generating interference to other BSs is larger than a predetermined threshold. Each BS selects the user with the largest SGINR among users. Simulation results show that the proposed technique significantly outperforms the existing user scheduling algorithms. It is worth noting that the proposed technique operates with distributed manner without information exchange among cells. Hence, it can be easily applied to the practical wireless systems like 3GPP LTE without significant modifications of the specification.
