Abstract

The main weakness of coordination techniques in LTE-Advanced networks is the extra resource consumption incurred by the joint transmission from several base stations. In this paper, we propose a new scheduling policy that performs coordination primarily for users staying at the cell edge, without mobility. Other cell-edge users are likely to move and to be served in better radio conditions where cell coordination is not required. We compare the performance of this algorithm to other usual scheduling policies in the presence of elastic traffic through the analysis of flow-level traffic models.
