Advanced Interference Management Technique: Potentials and Limitations

Information Theory 2015-09-14 v2 math.IT

Abstract

Interference management has the potential to improve spectrum efficiency in current and next generation wireless systems (e.g. 3GPP LTE and IEEE 802.11). Recently, new paradigms for interference management have emerged to tackle interference in a general class of wireless networks: interference shaping and interference exploitation. Both approaches offer better performance in interference-limited communication regimes than traditionally thought possible. This article provides a high-level overview of several different interference shaping and exploitation techniques for single-hop, multi-hop, and multi-way network architectures. Graphical illustrations that explain the intuition behind each strategy are provided. The article concludes with a discussion of practical challenges associated with adopting sophisticated interference management strategies in the future.
