Understanding Capacity Scaling through Dense Deployments in Future Radio Access Networks

Submitted by admin on 21 January 2016 - 10:28am

Today's heterogeneous networks comprised of mostly macro cells and indoor small cells will not be able to meet the upcoming traffic demands. Indeed, it is forecasted that at least a 100x network capacity increase will be required to meet the traffic demands in 2020.

Distributed power and rate control in wireless networks

Submitted by admin on 19 January 2016 - 1:25pm

The standard interference functions introduced by Yates have been very influential on the analysis and design of distributed power control laws. While powerful and versatile, the framework has some drawbacks: the existence of fixed-points has to be established separately, and no guarantees are given on the rate of convergence of the iterates.
