Definitions
- the present invention relates in general to wireless telecommunications and more particularly to resource allocation in wireless telecommunication networks.
- 3G wireless telecommunication networks comprise Base Stations (BS) that emit to exchange data with telecommunication nodes such as e.g. Mobile Stations (MS). This is done through communication channel on one or more given frequencies or bands of frequencies or frequency sub-carriers on an area defining a radio cell.
- BS Base Station
- MS Mobile Stations
- This is done through communication channel on one or more given frequencies or bands of frequencies or frequency sub-carriers on an area defining a radio cell.
- fourth generation systems are being tested and standardized. As these systems use higher frequency carriers and larger bandwidth, this implies coverage and spectrum efficiency problems, especially on the edges of the radio cells.
- RS Relay Station
- the RS mainly forwards the signal between the BS and the MS.
- a RS may also further define itself a RS cell.
- Relay Stations and Mobile Stations are telecommunication nodes for the Base Station.
- a RS may allow some Mobile Stations to connect to it using different frequencies (or different frequency sub-carriers) than the one(s) that is/are used to communicate directly with the BS, helping thus reducing inter-cell interferences near the edges of radio cells.
- inter-cell interferences may be reduce using for example an interference matrix.
- An interference matrix may be used to generate a cancellation operator that, when applied to a radio signal, may substantially remove interferences.
- the Base Station knows the channel condition of every Mobile Station since the Mobile Stations reports their Received Signal Strength Indicator (RSSI) and Signal to Interference and Noise Ratio (SINR) periodically to the BS.
- RSSI Received Signal Strength Indicator
- SINR Signal to Interference and Noise Ratio
- resources including frequency, time, radiated power and space isolation may be coordinated among neighbouring BS cells or RS cells to avoid inter-cell interferences. For frequency, close Relay Stations may allocate different frequency bands to avoid interferences.
- slot transmission coordination between MS and RS and RS and BS of neighbouring radio cells may help avoiding inter-cell interferences.
- Space isolation of the Relay Stations may be detected using RSSI or SINR measurements.
- Frequency-time resources may be reused among Relay Stations far away enough from each other.
- Resource allocation may be coordinated between the telecommunication nodes only when interferences are easily predictable because the telecommunication nodes are fixed or close from the BS or not directly subject to interferences of adjacent radio cells.
- Existing solutions do not satisfactory apply in the case of mobile telecommunication nodes, in particular mobile Relay Stations, and in the case of telecommunication nodes that are on the edge of a radio cell.
- Relay-aided solutions are being developed, but they mainly concentrate on the Physical (PHY) and Medium Access (MAC) layers and not the network layer.
- Existing resource allocation schemes for wireless relay-aided telecommunication systems do not propose to reduce interferences and in particular inter-cell interferences.
- patent application EP 1940185 discloses a method and system for bandwidth allocation and scheduling management based on a Relay Station, but does not give any lead on how to reduce interferences, in particular inter-cell interferences, especially for mobile telecommunication nodes, in particular mobile Relay Stations, and in the case of telecommunication nodes that are on the edge of a radio cell.

- the invention also proposes a system according to claim 8.
- the invention also proposes a Base Station according to claim 9.
- the invention also proposes a readable computer program according to claim 16.
- the method according to the invention proposes to efficiently allocate resources for reducing interferences and thus improving efficiency of wireless telecommunication systems.
- An advantage of the method according to the invention is that it allows reducing interferences (in particular inter-cell interferences), especially for mobile telecommunication nodes (in particular mobile Relay Stations), and in the case of telecommunication nodes that are located on the edge of a radio cell. Indeed, as some of the telecommunication nodes are located in locations where there are more interferences than others, as some of the telecommunication nodes are either Relay
- the method according to the invention takes all these parameters into account to prioritize the resource allocation. This allows in particular allocating the most efficient resources (e.g. orthogonal frequency sub-carriers in priority for telecommunication nodes in edge areas of different radio cells as opposed to telecommunication nodes in the centre area of a radio cell) to avoid interferences.
- most efficient resources e.g. orthogonal frequency sub-carriers in priority for telecommunication nodes in edge areas of different radio cells as opposed to telecommunication nodes in the centre area of a radio cell

- the system according to the invention allows a Base Station (BS) to allocate resources to telecommunication nodes such as Relay Stations (RS) and Mobile Stations (MS) in a wireless telecommunication network, and more particularly in on Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiple Access (OFDMA) wireless telecommunication network.
- BS Base Station
- RS Relay Stations
- MS Mobile Stations
- OFDMA Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiple Access
- subsets of sub-carriers are assigned to telecommunication nodes.
- Figure 1 describes the system according to the invention wherein a BS communicates through a communication channel with a RS and through another communication channel to a first MS (Mobile Station A) and wherein said RS communicates though a communication channel with a second MS (Mobile Station B).
- Mobile Stations and Relays Stations are telecommunication nodes for the Base Station.
- each radio cell of the wireless telecommunication network has a Base Station (BS).
- BS Base Station
- Relay Stations are suitable for locations where the coverage of the BS is attenuated or inexistent as they allow improving the spectrum efficiency for these areas.
- Relay Stations may be fixed (RS_F) and/or mobile Relay Stations (RS M).
- RS_F may be built at a bus station, a restaurant, a building etc...
- a RS M may be e.g. on a bus, a metro, a train etc...
- Figure 2A describes an exemplary embodiment of the system according to the present invention wherein a BS cell comprises three fixed Relay Station respectively RS Fl, RS F2 and RS F3 and one RS_M.
- RS_F3 covers partially a part of the BS cell, but is still in the radio coverage of the BS.
- Relay Stations work in transparent mode.
- a RS works in transparent mode when it does not allocate itself resources to the MS.
- the MS allocates resources to the MS (i.e. non-transparent mode)
- the MS considers the RS like a BS.
- Relay Stations in transparent mode exchange data with the BS and the MS according to an allocation scheme defined by the BS.
- frames are used to exchange data on the communication channels between the different entities (Base Station, Relay Stations and Mobile Stations).
- Frames allow defining the frequency sub-carriers distribution during pre-defined intervals of time or sub-frames.
- the data are exchanged in the form of bursts of data, a burst being a packet or block of data sent or received by the BS or by a telecommunication node.
- Figure 2B describe the structure of a frame according to an exemplary embodiment of the invention.
- a frame is defined in the frequency domain and in the time domain.
- a frame is defined by the frequency sub-carriers.
- a frame is defined by symbols.
- symbols In wireless communication, a symbol is a state or significant condition of the communication channel that persists for a fixed period of time.
- a symbol represents or conveys one or several bit of data.
- a frame is divided into four main time intervals or sub-frames wherein: a first sub-frame 210, called DL (Down Link) Access Zone, allows the exchange of data downlink between the BS and Mobile Stations directly (direct transmission without a Relay Station in between) and/or downlink between the BS and Relay Stations, a second sub-frame 220, called DL Transparent (or Relay) Zone, allows the exchange of data downlink between Relay Stations and the Mobile Stations that are connected to them, a third sub-frame 230, called UL (Up Link) Access Zone, allows the exchange of data uplink between Mobile Stations and either the BS or the Relay Stations they are connected to directly, a fourth sub-frame 240, called UL Relay Zone, allows the exchange of data downlink between Relay Stations and the BS directly.
- DL (Down Link) Access Zone allows the exchange of data downlink between the BS and Mobile Stations directly (direct transmission without a Relay Station in between) and/or downlink between the
- the frequency sub-carriers may be allocated independently from one time interval to another by the BS.
- Relay Stations are able to exchange data on the frequency sub-carriers selected (i.e. allocated) by the BS for each interval of time.
- This resource allocation is made using some control information contained in a control field called Mobile Application Part (MAP) field 203.
- the control information describes time and frequency sub-carriers allocated for each burst of data. In transparent mode, this control information is only sent by the BS (i.e. in a Down Link-MAP field (DL-MAP)) in the first sub-frame 210, but more generally, it can be emphasized that each sub-frame may comprise a MAP field downlink and/or uplink if needed within the scope of the present invention.
- DL-MAP Down Link-MAP field
- FCH Frame Control Header
- the preamble 201 allows a small interval of time for the receiver electronics in each of the nodes to settle after completion of the previous frame in order to correctly process the next frame.
- the FCH field 202 specifies the burst profile and the length of one or more down link bursts that immediately follow the FCH.
- each sub-frame is determined by the downlink and uplink traffic loads. As the traffic varies with time, the length of the sub-frame may be adjusted accordingly periodically. In general, the interval of time of the sub-frame is long enough to avoid too much overhead signalling.
- the frequency sub-carriers are divided at least two sets of frequency sub-carriers. These sets of frequency sub-carriers are prioritized so as to define level of Quality of Service, i.e. for less interference.
- the set of highest priority is characterized by a better efficiency on the edge of the radio cell and/or for mobile telecommunication nodes (as opposed to fixed one).
- the efficiency implies that less interference exist, and in particular less inter-cell interference, in comparison with lower priorities sets of frequency sub-carriers.
- orthogonal frequency sub-carriers may be defined as the set with the highest priority as they are less to none subject to interferences between each other.
- Non-orthogonal frequency sub-carriers may, on the opposite, define sets of lower priority.
- reserved sub-carriers are sub-carriers that are orthogonal among adjacent radio cells.
- the rest of the frequency sub-carriers are called the common sub-carriers.
- Figure 3 illustrates an example of frequency sub-carrier distribution wherein adjacent cells use orthogonal or reserved frequency sub-carriers on their edges to prevent inter-cell interferences.
- four sets of frequency sub-carriers respectively 300, 310, 320 and 330 are used by non-adjacent cells to prevent inter-cell interferences.
- the other frequency sub-carriers that may be common to adjacent cells being used mainly in the centre of each cell away from the edges to prevent inter-cell interferences.
- FIG. 4 describes the method according to the invention for allocating resources to a plurality of telecommunication nodes in a telecommunication network.
- telecommunication nodes may either be Relay Stations or Mobile Stations.
- the telecommunication network comprises radio cells and is a multi-carrier telecommunication network using a plurality of frequency sub-carriers, such as typically for example an OFDMA telecommunication network.
- Each radio cell comprises at least one Base Station, which defines at least one centre area and at least one edge area using different frequency sub-carriers. This means that sets of frequency sub-carriers are used by different telecommunication nodes in different location of the radio cell.
- reserved or orthogonal frequency sub-carriers are allocated by the Base Station to communicate with telecommunication nodes that are in a pre-defined edge area and common frequency sub-carriers are allocated by the Base Station to communicate with telecommunication nodes that are on a pre-defmed centre area.
- Frames are broadcasted to the telecommunication nodes that know when and using which resources they may be able to communicate. Communication involves four time intervals or sub-frames, as previously described, during which each entity (BS, RS, MS) may receive or send information (i.e. data): one time-interval or sub-frame allows the BS to send data to Relay Stations and Mobile Stations that are directly connected to it (i.e.
- a second time interval allows Relay Stations to send data to other Relay Stations and Mobile Stations that are directly connected to them (i.e. downlink); a third time interval allows Mobile Stations to send data to the Relay Station they are directly connected to (i.e. uplink); a fourth time interval allows Relay Stations to send data to the BS they are connected to (i.e. uplink).
- the resource allocation itself is done by the Base Station which sends the associated information in each frame (as described further in reference to Figure 5) to let telecommunication nodes know how the resource allocation of the radio cell has been defined for them (i.e. when they may send or receive data, using which frequency sub-carriers etc.).
- the resource allocation is performed by each Base Station of the network according to the number and types of telecommunication nodes that are in the radio cell covered by said Base Station.
- the centre and edge areas may be pre-defined using for instance the Signal to Interference Ratio (SIR) which allows the Base Station to know the distance to the telecommunication node (and thus if it is in the centre or edge area).
- SIR Signal to Interference Ratio
- a threshold SIR may be set (SIR TO ) in order to determine whether a telecommunication node is in the centre area (SIR> SIR T H) or in the edge area (SIR ⁇ SIR T H)- AS centre areas in each radio cell is relatively far away enough from each other and as the transmit power of the radio signal from the Base Station to the centre area does not need to be very high (because it is close from the BS), interferences on common sub-carriers are thus negligible or insignificant.
- SIR TO Signal to Interference Ratio
- edge areas should not limit the scope of the present invention as they may be more than two areas. Indeed, in a further embodiment according to the invention, for example, several edge areas and several threshold of SIR may be used, wherein each edge area would correspond to a range of SIR limited by two threshold SIR. In another further embodiment, it could be also possible to define non-radial areas within a radio cell and using another parameter than SIR to distribute frequency sub-carriers between areas. For instance, the radio cell might be sliced in rectangular areas, elliptical or any other shape of area wherein adjacent areas would be associated with different frequency sub-carriers. As before, there may be more than two areas.
- the method according to the invention comprises a preliminary act 400 of initialisation, wherein the Base Station gathers or receives data from or on telecommunication node allowing further classification.
- Said data may be either sent directly by the telecommunication node, measured by the BS or another entity, received from the telecommunication network etc...
- the classification may for example be to determine the type of telecommunication node, its location, whether it is a mobile or a fixed telecommunication etc.
- a piece of information on its location may be: inserted in a message exchanged with the BS, - obtained from a Global Positioning System (GPS) that would be linked with the telecommunication node, coming from the telecommunication network, measured by the BS, or obtained any mean for getting such information...
- GPS Global Positioning System
- the aforementioned classification allows the BS the set priorities between the telecommunication nodes to further allocate resource to them as described here under.
- the method according to the invention comprises an act 410 for allocating resources to the telecommunication nodes that are directly linked to the Base Station according to a first set of priorities.
- Telecommunication nodes are directly linked to the Base Station when they exchange data through one common air interface (i.e. one common set of frequency sub-carrier) directly.
- the BS may exchange data directly with either a Relay Station or a Mobile Station.
- the first set of priorities allows selecting pre-defined frequency sub-carriers according to the type of telecommunication node and its location in the edge or centre areas. Indeed, in an exemplary embodiment according to the invention, the priorities are made upon the type of telecommunication node (either a Relay Station or a Mobile Station) and the location of the telecommunication node (for example in the edge or centre area). This improves the efficiency of the resource allocation and reduces interferences as, as previously described, priorities are based on several areas.
- the edge area uses frequency sub-carriers orthogonal to the ones that are used in the edge areas of the adjacent cells, reducing thus inter-cell interferences.
- telecommunication nodes that are in a centre area will be further away from telecommunication nodes in a centre area of an adjacent cell using the same frequency sub-carriers and will be thus less (to none) subject to inter-cell interferences.
- Telecommunication nodes that are in the edge area of a radio cell will therefore be given a higher priority to obtain these edge frequency sub-carriers than the ones that are in the centre area.
- the priority may be given to the RS as several Mobile Stations may possibly be linked directly to it, implying thus a priority need of more efficient resources with less interference than a single Mobile Station.
- the priority may be given to the RS as several Mobile Stations may possibly be linked directly to it, implying thus a priority need of more efficient resources with less interference than a single Mobile Station.
- mobile Relay Stations may be given the highest priority whatever the area as they combine mobility and aggregation of Mobile Stations as several Mobile Stations may possibly be linked directly to each RS for example, implying thus a priority need of the most efficient resources with the least interferences.
- a mobile Relay Station covers a small area, which is usually the case if it is on a bus or on a train, then interferences received by the Mobile Stations directly connected to said mobile Relay Station are very similar. In this case, it may not be necessary to distinguish between edge mobile Relay Stations and centre mobile Relay Stations when defining the priorities in the method according to the invention.
- the resource allocation concerns frequency sub-carriers, but also other types of resources such as e.g. time, space isolation or transmitted power. For example, edge Relay Stations and edge Mobile Stations, as they are further away, may be given higher transmitted power than centre Relay Stations and centre Mobile Stations to reduce interferences to adjacent cells.
- the first and second sets of priorities may take into account the location of telecommunication nodes (for example if they are in the centre or in the edge area).
- the first and second sets of priorities may further take into account if telecommunications nodes are fixed or mobile.
- the first and second sets of priorities may further take into account the fact that a mobile Relay Station may have a higher priority that any other type of telecommunications node.
- priorities of the first set may be thus as follows: Mobile Relay Stations are given priority over Edge fixed Relay Stations which are given priority over Edge Mobile Stations which are given priority over Centre fixed Relay Stations which are given priority over Centre Mobile Stations.
- the method according to the invention comprises also an act 420 for allocating resources to the Relay Stations according to a second set of priorities.
- the second set of priorities allows selecting pre-defined frequency sub-carriers according to the type of telecommunication node which is connected to a given Relay Station and its location in the edge or centre areas.
- said second set of priorities may define that mobile Relay Stations may be given higher priority over fixed Relay Stations whatever the area as they are mobile and are thus more subject (i.e. more sensitive) to interferences than fixed Relay Stations and need thus more efficient resources (orthogonal frequency sub-carriers, higher transmitted power).
- priorities of the second set may be thus as follows: Mobile Relay Stations have priority over Edge fixed Relay Stations which have priorities over Centre fixed Relay Stations.
- Figure 5 describes a frame defined using an exemplary embodiment of resource allocation according to the present invention.
- the frame described in Figure 5 comprises two sub-frames: one downlink access zone sub-frame and one downlink relay zone sub-frame.
- the downlink access zone sub-frame comprises a preamble field, a MAP field and a FCH field as previously described.
- the priorities defined in the method according to the invention allow burst of time and frequency sub-carriers to be allocated to different types of telecommunication nodes which are at different locations.
- reserved frequency sub-carriers are allocated first respecting the priorities between telecommunication. For telecommunication nodes that are allocated reserved frequency sub-carriers, the order of allocation in time depends also on the priorities between telecommunication nodes.
- non-reserved or common frequency sub-carriers are allocated.
- the order of allocation in time depends also on the priorities between telecommunication nodes.
- the first sub-frame wherein the resources allocated by the Base Station are used by the Base Station to communicate downlink with telecommunication nodes that are directly connected to it, is the downlink access zone sub-frame.
- the downlink access zone sub-frame is the time interval wherein Base Stations may use the frequency sub-carriers of the telecommunication network to communicate with the telecommunication nodes that are connected directly to them downlink (i.e. Relay Stations and/or Mobile Stations).
- the resource allocation is made by the Base Station: the Base Station decides for every sub-frame which telecommunication nodes may use which resource at what time and/or in which time interval (i.e. sub-frame).
- the RS M has the highest priority and is thus allocated first. It gets hence a burst at the start of the resource part (in time) of the downlink access zone sub-frame with the reserved frequency sub-carriers that are the most efficient ones to reduce interferences.
- the next priority for frequency sub-carriers allocation is given to edge fixed Relay Stations.
- Edge RS Fl is thus allocated some of the reserved frequency sub-carriers in the earliest in time.
- edge RS_F3 is allocated some of the remaining reserved frequency sub-carriers.
- edge RS Fl is allocated first before edge RS F3, but, as they both have the same priority in the exemplary embodiment, it may have been allocated in the reverse order.
- edge MS are allocated some of the remaining reserved frequency sub-carriers (providing, as in this example of Figure 5, that there are some left at this stage).
- the edge MS needs more resources than just the ones provided by the remaining reserved frequency sub-carriers.
- the edge MS is further allocated some of the non-reserved frequency sub-carriers to fulfil its resource requirement.
- the centre RS_F2 is allocated some of the remaining non-reserved frequency sub-carriers according to its resource requirements.
- the centre MS is allocated some or all of the remaining non-reserved frequency sub-carriers.
- the next sub-frame wherein the allocated resources are used by Relay Stations to communicate downlink with telecommunication nodes that are directly connected to them is the downlink relay zone sub-frame.
- the downlink relay zone sub-frame is the time interval wherein Relay Stations may use the frequency sub-carriers of the telecommunication network to communicate with the telecommunication nodes that are connected directly to them downlink.
- Said telecommunication nodes are mainly Mobile Stations, but might also be other Relay Stations.
- the second set of priorities is defined as follows: RS_M > Edge RS_F > Centre RS F.
- the first allocated burst allows the mobile Relay Station RS_M to use some of the reserved frequency sub-carriers to send data to the Mobile Stations that are connected to them.
- the second allocated burst allows the edge RS_F1 to use some of the reserved frequency sub-carriers and some of the non-reserved frequency sub-carriers to send data to the Mobile Stations that are connected to them.
- the third allocated burst allows the edge RS_F3 to use some of the non-reserved frequency sub-carriers to send data to the Mobile Stations that are connected to them.
- the fourth allocated burst allows the centre RS F2 to use some of the non-reserved frequency sub-carriers to send data to the Mobile Stations that are connected to them.
- Relay Stations may be grouped together when they are in a pre-defined neighbourhood. Distinct groups of Relay Stations are considered as being far enough from each other to use e.g. the same groups of frequency sub-carriers, providing the distance between said distinct groups prevents interferences between said distinct groups.
- the Base Station may use any information, such as in particular for example the location of Relay Stations, in order to decide which Relay Station should belong to which group.
- the Base Station may use the signal strength of the Relay Stations when said Relay Station emits toward the Base Station, or a piece of information on the location of the Relay Station that would be inserted in a protocol, or location from a Global Positioning System (GPS) that would be embedded on the Relay Station, triangulation or any mean for getting such information...
- GPS Global Positioning System
- Figure 6 describes an exemplary embodiment of the system according to the invention, wherein there are two groups of distinct Relay Stations.
- the first group comprises the mobile Relay Station RS_M, the edge RS_F3 and the centre RS_F2.
- the second group comprises the edge RS_F1.
- the resource allocation for the downlink access zone sub-frame is the same as the one previously described in Figure 5.
- each group may use the same whole range of frequency sub-carriers.
- RS Fl may use the whole range of frequency sub-carriers to send data to the Mobile Stations that are connected directly to it.
- the mobile Relay Station RSJVI, the edge RS F3 and the centre RS F2 may use different allocated bursts to communicate downlink: - the RS_M has the priority and uses reserved frequency sub-carriers as shown on Figure 6; the edge RS F3 has not the priority over the RS_M, but has the priority over the centre RS_F2 and may thus use reserved frequency sub-carriers and non-reserved frequency sub-carriers as shown on Figure 6; - the centre RS_F2 has the least priority of all the Relay Stations and may use non-reserved frequency sub-carriers as shown on Figure 6.
- the mobile Relay Station is considered of being part of the
- Embodiments presented here above describe the system and method according to the invention in the case of Relay Stations working in transparent mode. However, this does not limit the system and method according to the invention to said transparent mode as it may be transposed mutatis mutandis to the non-transparent mode.
- a method wherein: - in the first set of priorities, Edge fixed Relay Stations which are given priority over Edge Mobile Stations which are given priority over Centre fixed Relay Stations which are given priority over Centre Mobile Stations, - in the second set of priorities, Mobile Relay Stations have priority over Edge fixed Relay Stations which have priorities over Centre fixed Relay Stations.
