In small cell networks, high mobility of users results in frequent handoff and thus severely restricts the data rate for mobile users. To alleviate this problem, we propose to use heterogeneous, two-tier network structure where static users…
We consider the downlink of a two-layer heterogeneous network, comprising macro cells (MCs) and small cells (SCs). The existing literature generally assumes independent placements of the access points (APs) in different layers; in contrast,…
