1. A cooperating set selection method for a wireless communication system, comprising the steps of:

  • determining a transmission mode utilized by the wireless communication system,wherein the transmission mode is Joint Processing or Coordinated Scheduling/Beamforming; and

    selecting, using circuitry, a cooperating set based on a cooperating set selection mechanism corresponding to the transmission mode utilized by the wireless communication system, whereinthe transmission mode of Joint Processing and the transmission mode of Coordinated Scheduling/Beamforming correspond to different cooperating set selection mechanisms respectively,the wireless communication system comprises a homogeneous network and a heterogeneous network, andin the selection of the cooperating set, different cooperating set selection mechanisms for the homogeneous network and the heterogeneous network respectively are utilized further according to different interference characteristics of the homogeneous network and the heterogeneous network,in a case that the transmission node of Coordinated Scheduling/Beamforming is utilized by the wireless communication system, the corresponding cooperating set selection mechanism is cell-specific according to which a same cooperating set is selected for terminals in a same cell.
