文摘Coordinated multi-point (CoMP) transmission is put forward in the long term evolution-advanced (LTE-A) system to improve both average and cell-edge throughput. CoMP-joint pro- cessing (JP) scheme can get a larger cell-edge throughput and a lower bit error rate (BER) than the CoMP-coordinated beamform- ing (CB) scheme, but it also has higher complexity due to data sharing. A hybrid coordinated strategy with parameter c~, which indicates the proportion of users employing the CoMP-JP scheme, is proposed to apply the CoMP-JP scheme to improve the poorer communication quality of cell edge and employ the CoMP-CB scheme for other users to enhance average throughput and spec- tral efficiency. This paradigm selects users defined by the certain threshold of signal to interference plus noise power ratio (SINR) corresponding to the parameter a to the CoMP-JP scheme. This paper compares the BER performance between the block diag- onalization (BD) based precoding and the linear precoders by maximizing signal to leakage and noise ratio (SLNR), and also in- dicates that the SLNR based precoding algorithm gets lower BER than the BD based precoding algorithm with certain signal-to-noise ratios (SNRs).
