The present invention discloses a
partial frequency reuse-based spectrum flexible
allocation method in a long term evolution (LTE)
heterogeneous network. In the method, a covered
macro cell is divided into a center region and an
edge region divided into N regions; one sub-
frequency band is allocated to a
macro user in the center region, and N sub-frequency bands are allocated to a
macro user in the
edge region; a home
base station assigns an initial value TM for a time invoking spectrum allocation information, and timing starts; whether a value TM of the
timer is 0 is determined; if the value of the
timer is not 0, partial frequency
multiplexing algorithms based on a spectrum
database are invoked; and if the value of the time is 0, it is indicated that the partial frequency
multiplexing algorithms based on the spectrum
database fail in running, and partial frequency
multiplexing algorithms based on spectrum sensing are invoked. Through adoption of the method,
inference in a
cell and among cells is effectively suppressed, spectrum efficiency of each
cell and
throughput of the user at the cell edge are improved,
base station maintenance
workload and
base station construction investment are reduced, and the adaptability of the base
station to the environment is enhanced.
