  • Abstract
    In this paper, we study the potential benefits of downlink cooperative MIMO systems in cellular macrocell environments using a coherent measurement setup. Our results reveal that one of the two measured routes can leverage comparable signal strengths from the cooperating base stations to the mobile station and provide up to two-fold single user bitrate gain at the 50% cumulative probability level.
