User association is necessary in dense millimeter wave (mmWave) networks to determine which base station a user connects to in order to balance base station loads and maximize throughput. Given that mmWave connections are highly directional…
In ultra-dense millimeter wave (mmWave) networks, mmWave signals suffer from severe path losses and are easily blocked by obstacles. Meanwhile, ultra-dense deployment causes excessive handovers, which reduces the data link reliability. To…
For small cell technology to significantly increase the capacity of tower-based cellular networks, mobile users will need to be actively pushed onto the more lightly loaded tiers (corresponding to, e.g., pico and femtocells), even if they…

User association determines which base stations a user connects to, hence affecting the amount of network interference and consequently the network throughput. Conventional user association schemes, however, assume that user instantaneous…
Instead of achievable rate in the conventional association, we utilize the effective rate to design two association schemes for load balancing in heterogeneous cellular networks (HCNs), which are both formulated as such problems with…
