    Coordinated multi-point transmission/reception (CoMP) improves coverage and cell-edge throughput on LTE networks by coordinating signal transmission and reception from multiple network antennas. The main idea is that when a user equipment is at the cell edge, it can receive signals from multiple nearby cell sites simultaneously or have its transmission received by multiple sites. This helps reduce interference and improve signal quality for cell-edge users. CoMP involves various techniques including joint transmission where data is transmitted from multiple points coherently and coordinated scheduling where sites exchange scheduling and beamforming information but transmit independently.

    Introduction
    CoMP will increase data transmission rates and help ensure consistent service quality and throughput on LTE wireless broadband networks as well as on 3G and 4G networks. By coordinating and combining signals from multiple antennas, CoMP, will make it possible for mobile users to enjoy consistent performance and quality when they access and share videos, photos and other high-bandwidth services whether they are close to the center of an LTE cell or at its outer edges. Coordinated Multi-Point transmission/reception (CoMP) is considered by 3GPP as a tool to improve coverage, cell-edge throughput, and/or system efficiency.

    The main idea of CoMP is as follows: when a UE is in the cell-edge region, it may be able to receive signals from multiple cell sites and the UEs transmission may be received at multiple cell sites regardless of the system load

    Principles
    The main purpose of COMP is solving the interference problem

    at the edge area of cells. The interference is decreased on edge users of cells by jointly scheduling several cells with rather strong edge interference, or by joint transmission, so that the reception power and service experience of a cells edge users can be improved.

    The figure below shows the basic principle of this transmission type. User Equipment 1 (UE1) at the cell edge is serviced by Cells 1, 2 and 3 at the same time. The interference from other cells to UE1 can be cleared in this way, and the signal quality of cells edge users can be enhanced

    SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS RELATED TO COMP TRANSMISSION AND RECEPTION FOR LTE-ADVANCED

    INTER-CELL INTERFERENCE COORDINATION


    Another simple CoMP transmission scheme which relies on resource management

    cooperation among eNBs for controlling inter-cell interference is an efficient way to improve the cell edge spectral efficiency. The Inter-Cell Interference Coordination (ICIC) enhancement currently being studied for LTE-Advanced can be classified into dynamic Interference Coordination (D-ICIC) and Static Interference Coordination (S-ICIC). In D-ICIC, the utilization of frequency resource, spatial resource (beam pattern) or power resource is exchanged dynamically among eNBs. For S-ICIC, both static and semi-static spatial resource coordination among eNBs are being considered.

    Joint Processing (JP) and Coordinated Scheduling/Beamforming (CS/CB)


    CoMP involves uplink CoMP reception and downlink CoMP transmission.

    Uplink CoMP reception improves cell-edge user throughput by joint multicell reception of user data. Downlink CoMP transmission is divided into Joint Processing (JP) and Coordinated Scheduling/Beamforming (CS/CB). JP achieves transmission gain through joint processing, while CS/CB reduces inter-cell interference through coordination, as shown in the figure.

    Coordinated Scheduling/Beamforming (CS/CB)


    Data are only transmitted from a single eNB, but base stations are

    connected with each other in order to exchange scheduling and beamforming information so that a dynamic multi-site scheduling can be performed.

    Joint Processing (JP)


    Two techniques are possible: fast cell selection, where only one base

    station is transmitting at a time and joint transmission where data are transmitted from different points at a time and they are coherently combined at the terminal.

    Multi-Point Joint Transmission


    Coherent Multi-Point Joint Transmission

    -Each data stream may be transmitted from multiple nodes -Tight Synchronization across the transmitting nodes (common phase reference) -A high-speed backbone network, e.g. Radio over Fiber

    Multi-Point Joint Transmission


    Non-coherent multi-cell processing

    - Dynamic multi-cell scheduling and inter-cell interference avoidance - Coordinated precoder design and beam allocation - Each data stream is transmitted from a single BS node - No carrier phase coherence requirement - Looser requirement on the coordination and the backhaul

    Uses
    Wireless services can be accessed anywhere and at

    anytime. Communication quality can be affected by multicell interference and can be dramatically reduced at cell edges. CoMP is considered by 3GPP as a tool to improve coverage, cell-edge through put.

    Advantages
    CoMP transmission and reception will provide broadband packet

    radio access with much higher performance than those for Release 8 LTE Coordinated Multi-Point Tx/Rx (CoMP) significantly improves celledge user throughput by employing multicell coordination. Users can access smooth and fast Internet whether they are in cell centre or at the cell edge. In the intra-site CoMP the significant amount of exchange of information is possible since this communication is within a site.

    Disadvantages
    Due to the propagation loss, UEs who are close to the cell-edge also

    suffered from the degradation in the quality of the received signal.

    CONCLUSION
    CoMP increases data transmission rates and help ensure consistent service quality and throughput on LTE wireless broadband networks as well as on 3G and 4G networks. Moreover, we present fast inter-cell radio resource management schemes that achieve elaborate CoMP, and the CoMP transmission and reception schemes including the related radio interface agreed upon by the 3GPP for LTE-Advanced.
