Abstract
An electronic device, and a method and computer readable medium, for use of subsets of coordinated multi-point (CoMP) transmission cells. The device includes processing circuitry configured to select a plurality of transmission cells as the subset of the CoMP set of transmission cells used to support wireless communications with a user equipment (UE). The processing circuitry selects the plurality of transmission cells based on a message from the UE that includes aggregate channel quality information (CQI) for at least two communication channels between the UE and corresponding transmission cells of the plurality of transmission cells.
