Abstract:
1. A method for assigning resources, comprising: establishing one or more connections between a first base station and one or more remote transceivers; establishing one or more wireless connections with one or more endpoints via at least one of the one or more remote transceivers, the one or more wireless connections using a first channel; determining a schedule assigning a first number of resource blocks to each endpoint of the one or more endpoints; receiving one or more neighboring transceiver schedules determined by one or more neighboring base stations, each neighboring transceiver schedule indicating a different number of resource blocks assigned to each neighboring remote transceiver connected to the respective neighboring base station; determining one or more time slots and one or more subcarriers within the first channel to assign to each resource block for each endpoint of the one or more endpoints based on the schedule, the one or more neighboring transceiver schedules, and a location of each endpoint; determining a power distribution for each resource block for each endpoint of the one or more endpoints; and coordinating the determining one or more timeslots and one or more subcarriers within the first channel and the determining a power distribution for each resource block to optimize capacity among the first base station and the one or more neighboring base stations.
