The present invention discloses a method for implementing coordinated multiple point transmission CoMP, including: configuring, by the network side, a range setting group to a user equipment, UE, and acquiring the original mapping pattern of various cells in the group; receiving the channel information of various cells in the group returned by the UE; selecting, by the network side, cells for practically sending data to the UE currently, determining the update mapping patterns for the cells selected in the group performing CoMP, and controlling the selected various cells to send a physical downlink shared channel to the UE according to the update mapping pattern. The present invention further discloses an apparatus for implementing CoMP In accordance with the method and apparatus for implementing CoMP of the present invention, the mapping patterns of the cells for practically sending data to a UE are updated by acquiring the CRS and CSI-RS mapping locations of the original mapping pattern of cells of the range setting group to get the update mapping pattern for use in the CoMP, so that it is possible to meet the design principle of CRS and CSI-RS and guarantee the normal application of CoMP at the same time.
