Systems and methods for location based uplink (UL) multiple-input-multiple-output (MIMO) pairing

Systems and methods are described for selecting User Equipment(s) (UEs) for pairing in a cellular network. A channel orthogonality of one or more UEs located within a radio range of a first Access Node (AN) may be determined. The one or more UEs may be prioritized for Uplink (UL) Multi-User Multiple...

Zusammenfassung:Systems and methods are described for selecting User Equipment(s) (UEs) for pairing in a cellular network. A channel orthogonality of one or more UEs located within a radio range of a first Access Node (AN) may be determined. The one or more UEs may be prioritized for Uplink (UL) Multi-User Multiple-Input-Multiple-Output (MU-MIMO) pairing when a channel orthogonality meets a set channel orthogonality condition. A second AN located within the radio range of the first AN may be detected. At least one of the prioritized UEs located within a radio range of the second AN may be selected for de-prioritization. The prioritized UEs may be paired to share a same set of resource blocks.
