User-centric non-full interference cellular networks: BS cooperation and bandwidth partitioning
Résumé
Abstract This paper presents a user-centric frequency reuse scheme depending on the user classification in the cell in a homogeneous Poisson point process network. Each cell is partitioned into multiple regions delimited by the signal-to-interference ratio of the user considered. A given resource block (RB) is assigned to one user in a cell and cannot be shared by another user in this cell. The typical user only uses a fraction of the RB, and the remaining part is left unused to avoid interference with the other cells. The base stations (BS) interfering set is hence determined by the coverage probability of the typical user, and this set can be approximated by a thinned version of the original PPP. Using this, coverage probability and spectral efficiency (SE) for each user types are derived, and a BS cooperation technique is proposed to improve the SE of the cell edge user. Finally, the average network spectral efficiency and fairness among users are analyzed under the developed theoretical framework. Our results show that the user-centric frequency reuse improves the coverage probability and the SE compared to the conventional frequency reuse scheme.
