A communication control method is disclosed, including: connecting, by a small cell by using a built-in soft SIM card or an inserted SIM card, to a Uu air interface of a macro cell to access the macro cell; after receiving a broadcast synchronization signal of the macro cell, synchronizing, by the small cell, with the macro cell, and acquiring configuration information of the macro cell; and performing, by the small cell, system configuration for the small cell according to the configuration information of the macro cell. A SIM card is added to the small cell, so that the small cell can access a macro cell in a terminal form, which is equivalent to addition of a Uu air interface between the small cell and the macro cell. Therefore, configuration management, performance optimization, admissible subscriber configuration, and the like are implemented for the small cell by using this air interface.

A full-duplex radio device is disclosed. The full-duplex radio device includes an analog transmission (TX) circuit that includes a power amplifier to output an analog TX signal. The full-duplex radio device also includes a feedback receiver circuit coupled to the analog TX circuit. The feedback receiver circuit provides a digital representation of the analog TX signal that is used to digitally cancel at least a transmitter noise component of a self-interference signal associated with a transmission of the analog TX signal in the full-duplex radio device.

The present disclosure relates to a 5G or a pre-5G communication system for supporting a higher data rate following 4G communication systems such as LTE. In accordance with an embodiment of the present disclosure, a method of a base station includes: checking an operation mode depending on whether beam sweeping is supported, transmitting a signal related to the operation mode to a terminal, and performing communication with the terminal according to the operation mode.

Methods and apparatuses are described for wireless communications. Cells may be grouped into a plurality of cell groups. A time adjustment may be determined and applied to uplink transmission timing of a cell group. A transmission timing difference between a first cell group and a second cell group may be determined. If the transmission timing difference exceeding a threshold, one or more devices may stop transmitting uplink signals via one or more secondary cells and/or may stop applying the timing adjustment for a cell group.

A method, an apparatus, and a computer program product for wireless communication are provided. The apparatus determines an interference type between a time division duplex (TDD) configuration subframe of a serving cell and a corresponding TDD configuration subframe of a neighboring cell, and sets a transmit power for an apparatus in the serving cell based on the interference type.
