The skyrocketing increase of mobile traffic exacerbates the stringent demand for high
spectrum efficient communications. In this paper, a spectrum reuse scheme is proposed for …

This paper proposes a spectrum sharing scheme based on Stackelberg game exploiting the
SON features of 3GPP LTE-A HetNets. In the game, the MeNB controls and prices the …

The joint user association and spectrum allocation problem is studied for multi-tier
heterogeneous networks (HetNets) in both downlink and uplink in the interference-limited …

This paper presents spectrum management in dynamic spectrum access (DSA) based 5G
heterogeneous wireless networks (HetNets). Current literature studies architectures and …

Currently, mobile network operators are allocated spectrum bands on an exclusive basis.
While this approach facilitates interference control, it may also result in low spectrum …

Using a mix of macro, pico, femto and relay cells, Heterogeneous Networks (HetNets), or
Small Cell Networks (SCN), are likely to provide a better spectral efficiency per unit area at a …

Mobile devices are becoming the priority of access to a growing trend of online services. As
services use higher quality images & video, an increase of wireless network capacity is …

Heterogeneous networks (HetNets) are likely to provide a ubiquitous access to the mobile
broadband services as they involve various small cells, each targeting a different …
