Exploiting Frequency and Spatial Dimensions in Small Cell Wireless Networks
This paper examines the efficiency of spatial and frequency dimensions in
serving multiple users in the downlink of a small cell wireless network with
randomly deployed access points. For this purpose, the stochastic geometry
framework is incorporated, taking into account the user distribution within
each cell and the effect of sharing the available system resources to multiple
users. An analysis of performance in terms of signal-to-interference-ratio and
achieved user rate is provided that holds under the class of non-cooperative
multiple access schemes. In order to obtain concrete results, two simple
instances of multiple access schemes are considered. It is shown that
performance depends critically on both the availability of frequency and/or
spatial dimensions as well as the way they are employed. In particular,
increasing the number of available frequency dimensions alone is beneficial for
users experiencing large interference, whereas increasing spatial dimensions
without employing frequency dimensions degrades performance. However, best
performance is achieved when both dimensions are combined in serving the users.Comment: IEEE WCNC '1
Analysis of LTE-A Heterogeneous Networks with SIR-based Cell Association and Stochastic Geometry
This paper provides an analytical framework to characterize the performance
of Heterogeneous Networks (HetNets), where the positions of base stations and
users are modeled by spatial Poisson Point Processes (stochastic geometry). We
have been able to formally derive outage probability, rate coverage
probability, and mean user bit-rate when a frequency reuse of and a novel
prioritized SIR-based cell association scheme are applied. A simulation
approach has been adopted in order to validate our analytical model;
theoretical results are in good agreement with simulation ones. The results
obtained highlight that the adopted cell association technique allows very low
outage probability and the fulfillment of certain bit-rate requirements by
means of adequate selection of reuse factor and micro cell density. This
analytical model can be adopted by network operators to gain insights on cell
planning. Finally, the performance of our SIR-based cell association scheme has
been validated through comparisons with other schemes in literature.Comment: Paper accepted to appear on the Journal of Communication Networks
