Abstract

Long Term Evolution-Advanced (LTE-A) offers several new technologies to improve the performance of the user. However, poor received signal and interference from adjacent cells in the cell-edge area can reduce the efficiency of using individual technology. Therefore, the cell-edge users have lower throughput compared to the other users in the cell and LTE-A standard. An efficient downlink radio resource management scheme is proposed in this paper by combining the coordinated multipoint transmission and reception technique along with carrier aggregation technique to achieve higher throughput for the cell-edge user and better overall performance. The proposed method jointly transmits multiple component carriers to the cell-edge user from different cells to increase the bandwidth, strengthen the received signal, and reduce the interference while it satisfies several constraints. Modified largest weighted delay first packet scheduling algorithm is deployed for resource allocation, which takes into account the delay parameters, the probability of packet loss, and data rates of the user. The obtained system-level simulation results show that the proposed method significantly enhances the throughput performances, spectral efficiency, and fairness index, compared with the existing conventional methods.
