Abstract

A method, device, and computer program product for data processing in a coordinated multipoint transmission area formed by a base station in a network are provided, wherein the base station determines a performance of a connection to at least one other base station, and wherein the base station and the at least one other base station are connected via an X2 interface. Based on the determined performance, a selection is made between a decentralized self-organizing cooperation and a centralized coordinated multipoint transmission. Furthermore, a communication system is suggested comprising such a device.
