On Cellular Capacity with Base Station Cooperation

—This paper is concerned with cellular systems with rate constraints in fading environments. We consider a simple but asymptotically optimal matched filtering/successive interference cancellation (MF-SIC) scheme. We derive several concise and closed-form bounds for the power and spectral efficiencies of various base station cooperation strategies, which provide some useful insights into cellular systems.
