Increase in system capacity and data rates can be achieved efficiently in a wireless system
by getting the transmitter and receiver closer to each other. Femtocells deployed in the …

The femtocell concept is an emerging technology for deploying the next generation of the
wireless networks, aiming at indoor coverage enhancement, increasing capacity, and …

Rapid increase in mobile data has raised the stakes on developing innovative new
technologies and cellular topologies that can meet these demands in an energy efficient …

Interference is the main source of capacity limitation in wireless networks. In some medium
access technologies in cellular networks, such as OFDMA, the allocation of frequency …

An overlay macrocell-femtocell system aims to increase the system capacity with a low-cost
infrastructure. To construct such an infrastructure, we need to solve some existing problems …

Introduction of Femtocells in heterogeneous network enhances the capacity, indoor
coverage of the existing macrocell based network. It also allows high-speed data services …

Heterogeneous Networks are multitier networks in which under macrocellular layout, low
power picocells, femtocells and RRHs having possibly shared spectrum and exist together …

In this article, we jointly consider the problem of efficient power control and coverage (PCC)
management over an integrated two-tier macrocell/femtocell network towards maximizing …

Since mobile traffic has been growing recently, the deployment of indoor small cells has
become an attractive solution to enhance coverage. However, the increasing density of cells …

In this paper, we present a distributed algorithm combining power control and scheduling for
densely deployed femtocells networks. The strong interference in the downlink from the …
