Title:
INTERFACE METHOD BETWEEN CENTRAL AGGREGATION DEVICE AND EXTENSION DEVICE, AND WIRELESS NETWORK CONTROL SYSTEM
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2017/175606
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
The present invention pertains to an interface method between a central aggregation device and an extension device, the method comprising: a step in which the central aggregation device transmits upstream signal instruction information for user equipment, and an identifier of the user equipment to the extension device; a step in which the extension device retains upstream signal information extracted from the received upstream signal instruction information, and the identifier, and transmits an upstream signal instruction to the user equipment; a step in which the extension device receives, on the basis of the retained upstream signal information and/or the identifier, an upstream signal transmitted from the user equipment; a step in which the extension device extracts data information from the upstream signal, estimates the upstream communication quality on the basis of the upstream signal, and transmits the extracted data information and/or the estimated upstream communication quality to the central aggregation device; and a step in which the central aggregation device receives the data information and/or the upstream communication quality from the extension device.
