The low communication quality at a cell boundary is a long-standing problem in mobile communication systems. This is because the reception power level decreases and the fading margin becomes insufficient at the cell boundary. Coordinated multipoint transmission/reception (CoMP) technology has been introduced to overcome this problem. In this paper, we propose a CoMP system with Alamouti transmission diversity and a multiple input and multiple output (MIMO) configuration to further improve the average bit error rate (BER) at a cell boundary and the channel capacity. We show the effectiveness of our proposed system in terms of the coverage probability and channel capacity.
