Abstract

A method to select members of a transmission set in a wireless network including receiving a list of network nodes included in a measurement set provided by a serving node is provided. The method includes determining received measurement values associated with the network nodes included in the measurement set and sorting the determined received measurement values in decreasing order. The method includes selecting transmission set cluster members having a determined received measurement value according to a threshold and providing channel status information (CSI) feedback on a plurality of network nodes included in the transmission set to the serving node in the wireless network.
