On the Performance of Static Inter-cell Interference Coordination in Realistic Cellular Layouts

چکیده
Effective interference management has been recognized by the industry and standardization bodies as a key enabler for 4G systems. This work is about static Inter-Cell Interference Coordination for OFDMA based cellular networks such as LTE. The majority of previous ICIC studies, both theoretical and simulation-based, have been conducted considering synthetic and/or small cellular layouts. In this work, the performance of static ICIC strategies in non-regular cellular layout is studied introducing some related RRM functions in the methodology. The overall performance assessment gives special attention to the efficiency vs. fairness tradeoff and the elements associated to it. Results show that the design of suitable and effective ICIC schemes for realistic cellular networks can not be done by simply extending classical approaches.

متن کاملCentralized Inter-Cell Interference Coordination Using Multi-Band 3D Beam-Switching in Cellular Networks
The deployment of small cells is one of the most effective means to cope with the traffic explosion of cellular mobile systems. However, a small cell system increases the inter-cell interference, which limits the capacity and degrades the cell-edge user throughput. Inter-cell interference coordination (ICIC), such as fractional frequency reuse (FFR), is a well-known scheme that autonomously mit...

Inter Cell Interference (ICI) still poses a real challenge that limits the Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing Access (OFDMA) system performance, especially for users located at the cell edge. A common Inter Cell Interference Coordination (ICIC) technique is interference avoidance in which the allocation of the various system resources (e.g., time, frequency, and power) to users is contr...
