LTE-A addresses the challenges of coverage block holes and increase in user density with
new features, such as small cell and femto cell. Small cell can be an inexpensive substitute …

Due to the increasing demand for higher data rates by mobile users, the deployment of
femtocells under macro coverage has been adopted by 3GPP LTE-Advanced systems as …

LTE Femtocells are designed to increase capacity and coverage especially for the indoor
and cell-edge mobile users. Typically, they are deployed to offload the macrocell users …

Downlink throughput performance in Long Term Evolution-Advanced (LTE-A) networks has
been widely investigated by many simulation studies. However, these studies generally …

In LTE, resource scheduling algorithm is one of the key parameters that determine the
overall system and UE performances in terms of throughput and fairness respectively …

Due to the explosive growth of mobile data traffic, operators are increasingly facing the
pressure of providing high data capacity to consumers while maintaining an efficient and low …
