INTRODUCTION
RAP
The main reason for using a hybrid solution with coprocessors is the fact that the full implementation of radio
interface baseband processing by means of GPPs may be
suboptimal in terms of required investment, energy
consumption and other performance parameters. On the other
hand, centralization of conventional baseband processing units
does not allow for an easy virtualization of the resources and
the reuse of IT solutions.

Cell based vs. user based processing (see Fig. 5): cell
based processing should be distributed as far as possible,
because it reduces the transport requirements and does
not exhibit potential processing multiplexing gains. On
top of this, this processing is better implemented using
hardware solutions;
