An ICI (Inter-Cell Interference) mitigation algorithm for exploiting macroscopic diversity for an up-link OFDMA (Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiple Access) system is proposed. To reduce the influence of carrier collision, the order of resource allocation is coordinated based on the location of each MS (Mobile Station) and the associated carrier group. This consideration significantly reduces ICI and enhances throughput at the boundary region.
For broadband wireless networks based on OFDM (Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing), an FRF (Frequency Reuse Factor) of 1 has been highly desirable for more improved channel throughput. However, due to the limited power budget of MSs (Mobile Stations) or the increase in ICI (Inter-Cell Interference), a required QoS (Quality of Service) may not be maintained. This paper addresses an optimal LCRTD (Loading Control based on Region-Time Division) over multi-cell environments for an efficient uplink QoS control. In the LCRTD scheme, a cell is divided into several regions by utilizing an optimization approach under QoS constraints, and users in each region are allowed to send their data at the allocated time slots. In the simulation, it is demonstrated that a decrease of 26% in the transmit power can be obtained.
