description

High Speed Single Frequency Network (HS-SFN) is a multi-cell transmission scheme for High-Speed Downlink Packet Access (HSDPA) that can assist user equipment (UEs) in the softer handover area by combining signals from two neighbouring cells and at the same time by reducing the inter-cell interference. This article analyzes performance of HS-SFN for macro cell scenario under different channels with different type of schedulers by means of extensive system level simulations. The results indicate that HS-SFN can increase throughput for UEs in softer handover area from 40% to 80% without decreasing the overall performance.
