In face of the rapid growth of data traffic in cellular networks, Cloud Radio Access Network (C-RAN) architecture has been proposed as a solution to obtain better performance in terms of efficiency, expansibility, elasticity, stability and expenditure such as Capital Expenditure (CAPEX) and Operational Expenditure (OPEX). However, C-RAN demands a comprehensive evaluation model and accurate qualitative...
In this article, we investigate the capacity of large-scale multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) multiple access channels (MACs) with linear receivers in ultra dense networks (UDNs) where the number of antennas at the base station and the number of total interfering terminals approach to infinity while maintaining a fixed ratio. To study the multicell uplink capacity of a large-scale MIMO system,...
Small cell networks as an important evolution path for the next generation cellular networks, have drawn much attention. Different from traditional base stations (BSs) always-on model, we proposed a BSs on-off model where a new simple expression of the BS active probability of HetNet is derived. This model is more suitable for the practical network where BSs are not always-on. Based on this, we develop...
Small cell technology significantly improves the coverage and boosts the capacity in Heterogeneous Cellular Network. And Cell Range Expansion technology makes average rate nearly optimal in downlink. However, because of large transmit power disparities of different kinds of base stations, uplink and downlink need to be considered as two different networks. In uplink, the problem is that many user...
In this paper, we propose an algorithm to solve the joint frequency resource and transmission power allocation problem for heterogeneous network (HetNet) of LTE-Advanced (LTE-A) systems, which consiste of several types of base station nodes, such as macrocell, picocell (hotzone), femtocell and relay. The optimization problem is formulated to minimize the sum downlink interference power level of all...
Device-to-Device (D2D) communication underlaying cellular network is considered to be a promising resource reuse technique, and it is basically developed for lots of local services. Considering the differences of the quality of services (QoS) between cellular and D2D users, the resource allocation scheme for D2D should flexibly allocate resource for D2D, rather than limiting one D2D user to share...
Multi-cell cooperation has been regarded as a promising technique of the future cellular wireless network to achieve higher transmission rate and better QoS (quality of service) performance. Cooperation among base stations can be classified into two categories: centralized and distributed cooperation. In this work, we mainly consider efficient and practical cooperation clustering approaches in the...
To ensure Evolved-Universal Terrestrial Radio Access Network (E-UTRA) or Long Term Evolution (LTE) can coexist with other mobile systems operating in the same geographical area, coexistence studies involving E-UTRA are ongoing in the 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP). Related work is also on the way in China Communications Standards Association (CCSA) which may influence the allocation of...
Mobile WiMAX based on IEEE 802.16e standard can realize enhanced network capacity requirements and various services as well as provide more novel experiences for users. Since WiMAX joining in 3G camp as the new member, the coexisting research of WiMAX and other 3G system (WCDMA, cdma2000 1x and TD-SCDMA) deployed in the same service area has gained increasing importance. In this paper, the detailed...
