A method is disclosed to eliminate inter-cluster interference of user equipment located at the edge of a cluster of cells. The method operates by employing fractional frequency reuse (FFR) principles on clusters or combinations of cells in a wireless neighborhood, in which base stations in the cells coordinate their operations in a scheme known as coordinated multi-point transmission (CoMP). By using the FFR principles to single out edge users of the CoMP cluster, the method mitigates interference and increases throughput for the edge users.
