Characterizing CDMA downlink feasibility via effective interference
This paper models and analyses downlink power assignment feasibility in Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA) mobile networks. By discretizing the area into small segments, the power requirements are characterized via a matrix representation that separates user and system characteristics. We obtain a closed-form analytical expression of the so-called Perron-Frobenius eigenvalue of that matrix, which provides a quick assessment of the feasibility of the power assignment for each distribution of calls over the segments. Although the obtained relation is non-linear, it basically provides an effective interference characterisation of downlink feasibility. Our results allow for a fast evaluation of outage and blocking probabilities, and enable a quick evaluation of feasibility that may be used for Call Acceptance Control. \u
Spatial spectrum and energy efficiency of random cellular networks
It is a great challenge to evaluate the network performance of cellular
mobile communication systems. In this paper, we propose new spatial spectrum
and energy efficiency models for Poisson-Voronoi tessellation (PVT) random
cellular networks. To evaluate the user access the network, a Markov chain
based wireless channel access model is first proposed for PVT random cellular
networks. On that basis, the outage probability and blocking probability of PVT
random cellular networks are derived, which can be computed numerically.
Furthermore, taking into account the call arrival rate, the path loss exponent
and the base station (BS) density in random cellular networks, spatial spectrum
and energy efficiency models are proposed and analyzed for PVT random cellular
networks. Numerical simulations are conducted to evaluate the network spectrum
and energy efficiency in PVT random cellular networks.Comment: appears in IEEE Transactions on Communications, April, 201
5G Ultra-dense networks with non-uniform Distributed Users
User distribution in ultra-dense networks (UDNs) plays a crucial role in
affecting the performance of UDNs due to the essential coupling between the
traffic and the service provided by the networks. Existing studies are mostly
based on the assumption that users are uniformly distributed in space. The
non-uniform user distribution has not been widely considered despite that it is
much closer to the real scenario. In this paper, Radiation and Absorbing model
(R&A model) is first adopted to analyze the impact of the non-uniformly
distributed users on the performance of 5G UDNs. Based on the R&A model and
queueing network theory, the stationary user density in each hot area is
investigated. Furthermore, the coverage probability, network throughput and
energy efficiency are derived based on the proposed theoretical model. Compared
with the uniformly distributed assumption, it is shown that non-uniform user
distribution has a significant impact on the performance of UDNs.Comment: 14 pages, 10 figure
Downlink and Uplink Cell Association with Traditional Macrocells and Millimeter Wave Small Cells
Millimeter wave (mmWave) links will offer high capacity but are poor at
penetrating into or diffracting around solid objects. Thus, we consider a
hybrid cellular network with traditional sub 6 GHz macrocells coexisting with
denser mmWave small cells, where a mobile user can connect to either
opportunistically. We develop a general analytical model to characterize and
derive the uplink and downlink cell association in view of the SINR and rate
coverage probabilities in such a mixed deployment. We offer extensive
validation of these analytical results (which rely on several simplifying
assumptions) with simulation results. Using the analytical results, different
decoupled uplink and downlink cell association strategies are investigated and
their superiority is shown compared to the traditional coupled approach.
Finally, small cell biasing in mmWave is studied, and we show that
unprecedented biasing values are desirable due to the wide bandwidth.Comment: 30 pages, 9 figures. Submitted to IEEE Transactions on Wireless

Performance analysis of downlink shared channels in a UMTS network
In light of the expected growth in wireless data communications and the commonly anticipated up/downlink asymmetry, we present a performance analysis of downlink data transfer over \textsc{d}ownlink \textsc{s}hared \textsc{ch}annels (\textsc{dsch}s), arguably the most efficient \textsc{umts} transport channel for medium-to-large data transfers. It is our objective to provide qualitative insight in the different aspects that influence the data \textsc{q}uality \textsc{o}f \textsc{s}ervice (\textsc{qos}). As a most principal factor, the data traffic load affects the data \textsc{qos} in two distinct manners: {\em (i)} a heavier data traffic load implies a greater competition for \textsc{dsch} resources and thus longer transfer delays; and {\em (ii)} since each data call served on a \textsc{dsch} must maintain an \textsc{a}ssociated \textsc{d}edicated \textsc{ch}annel (\textsc{a}-\textsc{dch}) for signalling purposes, a heavier data traffic load implies a higher interference level, a higher frame error rate and thus a lower effective aggregate \textsc{dsch} throughput: {\em the greater the demand for service, the smaller the aggregate service capacity.} The latter effect is further amplified in a multicellular scenario, where a \textsc{dsch} experiences additional interference from the \textsc{dsch}s and \textsc{a}-\textsc{dch}s in surrounding cells, causing a further degradation of its effective throughput. Following an insightful two-stage performance evaluation approach, which segregates the interference aspects from the traffic dynamics, a set of numerical experiments is executed in order to demonstrate these effects and obtain qualitative insight in the impact of various system aspects on the data \textsc{qos}
