Abstract:
1. A method for wireless communication, comprising: determining a plurality of resource partitioning actions related to allocation of available resources among a set of base stations, each resource partitioning action being associated with a set of resource usage profiles for the set of base stations, one resource usage profile for each base station, each resource usage profile indicating allowed usage of the available resources by a particular base station; computing local metrics for the plurality of resource partitioning actions by a base station of the set of base stations; receiving, by the base station, local metrics for the plurality of resource partitioning actions from at least one neighbor base station in the set of base stations; obtaining overall metrics for the plurality of resource partitioning actions, the overall metrics being based at least in part on the computed local metrics and the received local metrics for the plurality of resource partitioning actions; and determining allocation of the available resources to the set of base stations based on the overall metrics for the plurality of resource partitioning actions.
