Title:
SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR MANAGING REVERSE LINK COMMUNICATION RESOURCES IN A DISTRIBUTED COMMUNICATION SYSTEM AND CORRESPONDING APPARATUS
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO2004114704
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
An apparatus, system, and method efficiently manage reverse link communication in a communication system having geographically distributed base stations. Coupled load information is exchanged between base stations allowing a base station to determine an appropriate allocation of reverse link channel resources to mobile stations served by the base station. Since the allocation of reverse link channels resources are controlled directly by the base station, delays due to communications with a central controller are eliminated. As a result, adverse effects of load scheduling based on obsolete reverse channel information are minimized.
