Abstract :
A previously published novel simulcast cellular architecture for mobile radio implements corner illumination of a cell by two or three base stations and overlapping cells. Due to the macroscopic diversity, the transmission impairments caused by fading are reduced significantly. In this paper we demonstrate the pronounced positive effect of adaptive power control on the co-channel carrier-to-interference ratio for simulcast architectures, especially in comparison to conventional structures with a single base station per cell
