In next more advanced form of macrodiversity, multiple distributed users communicate with multiple distributed base stations in the same time and frequency resource. This form of configuration has been shown to utilize available spatial DoF optimally and thus increasing the cellular system capacity

The baseline form of macrodiversity is called single-user macrodiversity. In this form, single user which may have multiple antennas, communicates with several base stations. Therefore, depending on the spatial degree of freedom (DoF) of the system, user may transmit or receive multiple independent

has a limited average power) and different sets of coordinating transmitters/receivers when communicating with different users. Note that the input-output relationship above can be easily extended to the case when each transmitter and/or receiver have multiple antennas.
