In this paper, we examine the combined impacts of distance-dependent Rician fading
channel model and the absolute difference between the heights of base station (BS) and …

The performance of heterogeneous cellular networks (HCNs) is typically analyzed with the
assumption that the users connect with the same base station in uplink and downlink …

Cellular networks are becoming dense due to deployment of small cells and a number of
user devices. Such networks are called ultra-dense networks (UDNs). In this paper, we …

Coordinated Multi-Point (CoMP) transmission by neighboring base stations to mobile users
is recently considered for both the cell-edge and the overall system throughput …

In a multicell system, universal frequency reuse can be employed in a network of
neighboring cells for higher spectral efficiency. However, universal frequency reuse comes …

Coordinated multipoint (CoMP) transmission is widely recognized as a promising technique
for inter-cell interference (ICI) mitigation. Because both the signal processing complexity and …

We propose a novel Location-Aware multicell Cooperation (LAC) scheme for downlink
transmission in OFDMA-based networks. Compared to the traditional multicell cooperation …

We investigate coordinated multipoint (CoMP) multiuser multiple-input-and-multiple-output
(multiuser-MIMO) downlink transmissions over mobile access networks yielding different …

Coordinated multi-point (CoMP) schemes have been widely studied in the recent years to
tackle inter-cell interference. In practice, latency and throughput constraints on the backhaul …

To improve the cellular energy efficiency, without sacrificing quality-of-service (QoS) at the
users, the network topology must be densified to enable higher spatial reuse. We analyze a …
