Summary: | Coordinated Multi-Point (CoMP) transmission and reception is seen as a promising technology to achieve higher spectral efficiency in LTE-Advanced systems. Base stations cooperation can be one of the most important enabling technologies beneficial in scenarios with high inter-cell interference (ICI). In this paper, interference mitigation and coordination schemes in CoMP are being discussed. Simulation study to show the significant effect of ICI to cell-edge performance is presented. In this work, we proposed an interference cancellation scheme with minimal backhaul requirements in addition to existing inter-cell interference coordination (ICIC) schemes.
