LTE Advanced (LTE-A) small cells (pico cells) allow a smart densification of an existing macro cellular network. They are a means to cope with increasing traffic demands. They cover hotspots and support users in areas with otherwise bad service coverage. As they are surrounded by macro cells with a much higher TX power, higher antenna gain, and a much lower path loss, they offer a high transmission...
Heterogeneous Networks (HetNet) have been recognized as a key enabler for providing high data rates. However, co-channel deployed HetNet will experience inter-layer interference, and hence calls for use of enhanced Inter-Cell Interference Coordination (eICIC) to solve such interference problems. In order to achieve the full performance benefits of eICIC, its corresponding configuration parameters...
Enhanced Inter-Cell Interference Coordination (eICIC) for co-channel deployment of pico-cells throughout a macro-cell layout is a promising solution to increase system capacity and network coverage in Long Term Evolution (LTE)-Advanced systems. The use of both pico-cell Range Extension (RE) and time domain eICIC (TDM muting) in this scenario has been proved to provide high gains compared to the traditional...
