A small cell augmentation to a wireless network leveraging fiber-to-the-node access infrastructure for backhaul and power
We describe an efficient fiber backhaul strategy for a small-cell network, which leverages facilities associated with an existing fiber-to-the node (FTTN) residential access network. Related optimization studies are also described. © 2013 OSA

Design and optimization of fiber-optic small-cell backhaul based on existing fiber
An efficient small-cell network design leverages facilities associated with an existing fiber-tothe node (FTTN) network to provide backhaul. Potential small-cell sites are determined from among all FTTN remote terminals, and optimization techniques are used to choose the most efficient subset of sites for maximum coverage, and to design the fiber backhaul architecture
