Frame transmission system and method of interference alignment and controlling in multi-cell random access network
Provided is a frame transmission method of interference alignment (IA) and controlling, the method including calculating a channel matrix of a basic service set (BSS) by measuring channel information between an access point and a user terminal, performing singular value decomposition (SVD) based on the calculated channel matrix, selecting a beamforming vector in consideration of an interference amount associated with another access point based on the SVD performed by the channel matrix, and calculating a leakage interference (LIF) value based on the selected beamforming vector.
1. A frame transmission method of interference alignment (IA) and controlling, the method comprising:
receiving a contention window (CW) value broadcasted by an access point;
setting a backoff counter based on the received CW value; and
generating a leakage interference (LIF) value related to an access point monitored for a predetermined period of time and performing a backoff by setting the backoff counter when a channel is in an idle state,
wherein the CW value is set at the access point based on a first throughput obtained from a packet that arrives in a desired signal space and a second throughput to be obtained through a multiple-packet recovery using a user terminal performing simultaneous transmissions throughout a system.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the performing of the backoff comprises:
dividing a range of cumulative distribution function (CDF) values based on the CW value;
calculating the LIF value based on a channel condition during a transmission attempt;
calculating the CDF values corresponding to the calculated LIF value; and
selecting the backoff counter based on the calculated CDF values, the backoff counter being selected according to a channel characteristic based on the LIF value.
3. The method of claim 1 , further comprising: decreasing the selected backoff counter by 1 for each backoff slot and attempting a packet transmission through a user terminal of which the backoff counter is to be 0.
4. The method of claim 1 , further comprising: decreasing the backoff counter for each backoff slot and suspending the backoff when a user terminal attempts a packet transmission.
5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the CW value is set as a constant based on a reciprocal value to maximize a sum of the first throughput and the second throughput.
