Simulative performance evaluation of Coordinate Multi Point operation (CoMP) in LTE-advanced
CoMP is introduced in LTE-A to improve network performance at the cell edges and
increase system throughput. Coordinated multipoint transmission and reception
refers to a wide range of techniques that enable dynamic coordination or
transmission and reception with multiple geographically separated eNBs. Its aim
is to enhance the overall system performance, utilize the resources more
effectively and improve the end user service quality. CoMP is divided into two
major categories, Joint Transmission (JT), and Coordinated Scheduling or Beam
forming (CS/CB).
The aim of this project is to simulate the downlink CoMP algorithms and evaluate
their performances using appropriate figures of merit. Students will focus on LTE
downlink transmission and exploit coordinated transmission to develop a software
package in Matlab.
Dates
The first meeting for the institute project is on Thursday 21th April, 14:00 p.m., in ICT cubes Room 333.
