Abstract:
1. A method for using resources in a communication system, comprising: determining a communication node set having communication nodes which cooperatively provide a communication service to a user terminal by using a same network resource; and determining a transceiving node set from among the communication nodes included in the determined communication node set, wherein said transceiving node set comprises at least one communication node which transceives information from/to the user terminal, wherein the communication node set further comprises: at least one communication node that does not provide the communication service to the user terminal, at least one communication node that is unable to provide the communication service to the user terminal, at least one communication node having a first service coverage which is not adjacent to a second service coverage of at least one of the remaining communication nodes included in the communication node set, or at least one communication node having a third service coverage which is overlapped with a fourth service coverage of at least one of the remaining communication nodes included in the communication node set, wherein if the transceiving node set has more than one communication node, two or more communication nodes included in the transceiving node set transceive the same information from/to the user terminal by using the same network resource for each of the two or more communication nodes, or two or more communication nodes included in the transceiving node set transceive different information from/to the user terminal by using the same network resource for each of the two or more communication nodes.
