Fractional Re-Use:
Users near the base
station re-use the same
frequencies (OFDM sub-
carriers), whereas users
at the cell boarder are
allocated to sub-carriers
in a co-ordinated
manner

4G
- OFDM
- Cooperative communications
- Base station cooperation
- Ad hoc MIMO relaying
- Cognitive radio in the spatial domain
- Multiuser MIMO techniques are integrated
- Interference management
- Interference alignment
- Network coordinates the radio resource access, coding,
and modulation among interfering links.
- and more new stuff
