Abstract

The present disclosure is directed to a system and method for selecting a sub-group of user terminals (UTs) among a group of UTs served by a sector of a cellular network to schedule independent data streams for transmission to over the same time-frequency interval. In one embodiment, the sub-group of UTs is selected to limit inter-user interference among the sub-group of UTs. In another embodiment, the sub-group of UTs is selected to limit inter-user interference experienced by a UT that is at or near the boundary of the sector that serves the sub-group of UTs.
