Device-to-device (D2D) communications have been proposed as a promising technology to improve network capacity and user experiences. In this letter, we make theoretical analyses on D2D mode selection with user mobility. Using the stochastic geometry, we deduced that the D2D communication range can be well represented by biased circles with varying radius. Besides, a tractable analytical framework...
In this paper, we make theoretical analysis on cross-tier handover in Small Cell Networks (SCNs). The cross-tier handover is defined as the handover occurred from a macro cell tier to a small cell tier, or vice versa. Based on stochastic geometry, we first propose a linear approximation approach to study the coverage of small cells. Using the proposed method, we then derive analytical expressions...
Hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) plays an important role in improving the transmission efficiency and the robustness of wireless networks. Considering K-tier heterogeneous networks (HetNets) and modelling the locations of the base stations (BSs) as a homogeneous Poisson point process (PPP), this paper investigates the performance of HetNets implementing HARQ. We give closed- form expressions...
Clustering is a promising interference mitigation scheme in dynamic TDD systems. However, most previous works just took large-scale path loss or coupling loss as criteria of the clustering schemes, thus the throughput performance would be limited by the varying traffic requirements among different small cells within one cluster. In this paper, a novel dynamic cluster-based Interference Mitigation...
In LTE-Advanced (LTE-A) and beyond networks, deploying complementary small cells on an existing macro layer is recognized as an attractive solution to improve the network capacity and provide seamless broadband services in local areas. However, existing cell discovery mechanism is tailored for homogeneous networks (macro only). User Equipment (UE) can't energy-efficiently detect the small cells on...
