Cross-Tier Interference Management Schemes in Cognitive Heterogeneous Networks
نویسندگان
چکیده
To satisfy the ever-increasing data rate and service coverage demands, wireless communication networks evolve into heterogeneous networks (HetNets), where low-cost small base stations are embedded in conventional macrocells. Intercell interference emerges as the key capacity-limiting factor in such dense networks, restricting the reusability of spectral resources. Therefore, advanced interference mitigation techniques relying on multi-cell cooperation have attracted significant attention from the wireless industry and academia. This paper discusses interference management schemes for multi-tiered spectrum access in next-generation HetNets. A novel scheme based on full system cognition and base station cooperation is proposed as an enabler for high-capacity HetNets. In addition, practical implementation and operational challenges are investigated.

Stochastic Geometry Based Framework for Coverage and Rate in Heterogeneous Networks with Sectored Fractional Frequency Reuse
Modern day cellular networks are driven by the need to provide ubiquitous connectivity with very high spectral efficiency to both indoor and outdoor users, hence the need to deploy small cells over conventional macrocells in a Heterogeneous Network (Hetnet) deployment. To alleviate the resulting inter-cell and cross-tier interference, effective intercell interference coordination (ICIC) schemes...

The Third Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) has proposed enhanced Inter-Cell Interference Coordination (eICIC) for the Fourth Generation Cellular Network Standard of the Heterogeneous Networks (HetNets) in order to decrease Cross-Tier Interference. eICIC includes two schemes, Cell Range Expansion (CRE) and Almost Blank Subframe (ABS). The Fourth Cellular Network Standard LTE (Long Term Evol...
متن کاملInterference Management in Heterogeneous Networks with Blind Transmitters
Future multi-tier communication networks will require enhanced network capacity and reduced overhead. In the absence of Channel State Information (CSI) at the transmitters, Blind Interference Alignment (BIA) and Topological Interference Management (TIM) can achieve optimal Degrees of Freedom (DoF), minimizing network’s overhead. In addition, Non-Orthogonal Multiple Access (NOMA) can increase th...

Heterogeneous networks (HetNets) are regarded as a promising approach to handle the deluge of mobile data traffic. With the co-channel deployment of small cells, the coverage and capacity of the network will be improved. However, the conventional maximum-received-power (MRP) user association scheme and cross-tier interference issue significantly diminish the performance gain provided by small c...

In this contribution, we consider a heterogeneous two-tiered network where a tier of cognitive self-organizing small cells is deployed over the coverage area of a preexisting orthogonal frequency division multiple access (OFDMA) macro cell. Neither crossnor co-tier cooperation or communication is established, thus no joint signal processing techniques can be implemented by the macro and small b...
