    Abstract: A method for allocating fractional frequency reuse (FER) resources to perform cooperative MIMO in a multi-cell environment is disclosed. A cell which requests FER resources decides a band for cooperative MIMO with its neighboring cell, and requests the neighboring cell to allocate the decided band for cooperative MIMO. A cell which receives FER resource request receives a request from a neighboring cell to allocate some or all of FER bands allocated to the neighboring cell as a band for cooperative MIMO, decides whether to grant the request, and allocates some or all of the requested FER bands as the band for cooperative MIMO with the neighboring cell if the request is granted.
