Coordinated Multi-Point Transmission and Reception for LTE-Advanced

In this paper a new technology is introduced for LTE-Advanced to meet the requirement of IMT-Advanced. The proposed scheme is Coordinated multi-point transmission and reception (CoMP). This method not only reduces the inter-cell interference (ICI), but also increases the cell average and cell edge user throughput in the both uplink and downlink.CoMP is specifically introduced in the following part.
