Coordination between neighboring cells is intended to be implemented in future mobile networks, since it promises significant performance gains. Despite low-latency cooperation made possible by Cloud Radio Access Networks (C-RAN), practical feasibility and improvements brought to a real system were still to be evaluated. We define in this paper an architecture based on the abstraction and scalability...
It is well-known that opportunistic schedulers can exploit multi-user diversity and channel variations in the presence of elastic traffic to improve users' QoE. As more and more adaptive streaming traffic appear in the wireless system, it is needed to verify the performance impacts of deploying opportunistic schedulers and other policies. This paper examines the video bit rate and the buffer surplus...
The main weakness of coordination techniques in LTE-Advanced networks is the extra resource consumption incurred by the joint transmission from several base stations. In this paper, we propose a new scheduling policy that performs coordination primarily for users staying at the cell edge, without mobility. Other cell-edge users are likely to move and to be served in better radio conditions where cell...
In this paper, we assess the performance gains of mobility on the downlink of cellular data networks. These gains are only due to the elastic nature of traffic and thus observed even under a blind, fair scheduling scheme: data are more likely transmitted when users are close to the base stations, in good radio conditions. This phenomenon is further amplified by opportunistic scheduling schemes that...
In this paper, we assess the performance of inter-cell coordination in the presence of mobility. This performance depends primarily on the resource allocation scheme. Indeed, a scheduling strategy which may seem efficient when users are static can lead to bad performance when users are mobile. Several scheduling policies are investigated. Their performance critically depends on their ability to predict...
