Abstract

Coordinated multipoint (CoMP) communication is a new method that improves energy efficiency, extends cell coverage, and increases capacity in cellular networks. However, since channel state information from the involved cells is needed in CoMP systems, practical systems that employ CoMP techniques suffer from constraints imposed by the backhaul network. In this paper, we take a novel approach to study the energy efficiency issues in cooperative wireless cellular networks with CoMP communications. Specifically, to derive the base station grouping decisions for energy-efficient transmissions in CoMP, we use stochastic predictive control algorithm. Simulation results are presented to show the effectiveness of the proposed scheme.
