Heterogeneous networks are a key solution to serving the exponential surge in data volume and higher quality expectations. Nonetheless, such networks require the ubiquitous presence of fiber-to-the-cell to address the performance demands of 5G and fast-spreading small cells. To this end, innovative ways of optimizing the usage of realistic backhaul links are being investigated. In this work, we propose...
