Abstract

Recently, a new mobile radio cell architecture was proposed employing macro diversity and overlapping cells. Simulcast transmission is used in the downlink. Due to multiple propagation paths between the base stations and a single mobile station the transmission impairments caused by fading are reduced significantly. Therefore, macro diversity cell structures show substantially smaller outage probabilities. The essential effects of the explicit cell overlapping on the outage probability and the handover reliability are evaluated.
