Design approach of throughput improvement for cellular network

Cellular communications become increasingly popular and mobile subscribers are expected to rise heavily. Besides cellular communications ad hoc networking is another type of wireless communication technology. Traditional cellular networks and mobile ad hoc networks both have their respective advantages and drawbacks. Cooperative transmission schemes are used in wireless networks to improve the spectral efficiency. In this paper, the downlink capacity of edge users in a cellular network and see whether base station cooperation improves the spectral efficiency.
