This greatly improves link performance and increases link capacity. A network with co-existing macro and pico cells ean alleviate traffic congestion caused by muhicast or unicast subscribers, help satisfy huge traffic demands, and further extend converge. In order to practically implement advanced 5G technology, a number of technical problems have to be solved, one of which is inter-cell interference. A method called Almost Blank Subframe （ABS） has been proposed to mitigate interference; howev- er, the reference signal in ABS still causes interference. This paper describes how interference can be cancelled by using the in- formation in the ABS. First, the interference-signal model, which takes into account channel effect, time and frequency error, is presented. Then, an interference-cancellation scheme based on this model is studied. The timing and carrier frequency offset of the interference signal is compensated. Afterwards, the reference signal of the interfering cell is generated locally and the channel response is estimated using channel statistics. Then, the interference signal is reconstructed according to previous estimation of channel, timing, and carrier frequency offset. The interference is mitigated by subtracting the estimated interference signal. Com- puter simulation shows that this interference-cancellation algorithm significantly improves performance under different channel conditions.展开更多
