Selection Principle for CoMP Coordinated Neighbor Cell

1. Before enabling the CoMP function, CoMP coordinated neighbor cells should be
configured on EMS. The principle for selecting a CoMP coordinated neighbor cell is the
same with the rules used to select a handover neighbor cell.

2. The number of CoMP coordinated neighbor cells is limited to 6. Therefore, not all
handover neighbor cells can be configured to coordinated neighbor cells. Only the cells
with the physically overlapped areas can be selected and configured to coordinated
neighboring cells.

3. A CoMP serving cell can be configured with 6 coordinated neighbor cells. According to
the A3 measurement, the serving cell can automatically select a neighbor cell with the
strongest interference as coordinated neighbor cell to perform CoMP so as to avoid
interference.
