As dual-polarized multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) technique has little inter-antenna interference, it provides high data rate and reliability to a user equipment (UE) with the low system complexity. In the joint transmission (JT) technique of the coordinated multi-point (CoMP) transmission system, multiple transmission points (TPs) transmit the same data to the UE so that the UE can get the diversity gain and the high reliability, especially at the cell-edge. However, the system performance of the dual-polarized MIMO in the JT technique of CoMP system is very sensitive on the dual-polarized channel state when the channel is asymmetric. In this letter, an improved dual-polarized MIMO scheme for JT of the downlink CoMP transmission system is proposed. This scheme adaptively applies the transmission power to each dual-polarized MIMO antenna and the modulation order of the transmission data according to the channel state information (CSI). System-level simulation results show that the proposed scheme provides better bit-error-rate (BER) performance in the asymmetric dual-polarized channel state than the conventional scheme.
