Abstract
The embodiments disclose a method and an Access Point (AP) for assigning a sounding resource in a Time Division Duplex (TDD) cellular network. The method obtains a channel information between a serving AP and a User Equipment (UE) served by the serving AP, determines whether to assign the sounding resource to the UE according to the predetermined assigning criteria based on the channel information, and makes the sounding resource assignment if it is determined to assign the sounding resource to the UE.
