To fully exploit the network capacity, the HCN is modeled as a K-tier cellular network where each tier's base stations (BSs) have different properties. However, deploying numbers of low power nodes (LPNs) which share the same frequency band with macrocell generates severe inter-cell interference. Enhancement of system capacity is restricted for inter-cell interference. Therefore, a feasible RA scheme has to be developed to fully exploit the resource efficiency. Under the constraint of inter-cell interference, we formulate the RA problem as a mixed integer programming problem. To solve the optimization problem we develop a two-stage solution. An integer subchannel assignment algorithm and Lagrangian-based power allocation algorithm are designed. In addition, the biasing factor is also considered and the caused influence on system capacity is evaluated. Simulation results show that the proposed algorithms achieve a good tradeoff between network capacity and interference. Moreover, the average network efficiency is highly improved and the outage probability is also decreased.展开更多

In the proposed protocol, information bits are mapped into two information carrying units: 1) a constellation point in the constellation diagram and 2) the spatial domain, i.e. into the location of a particular cooperative user number. The analytical expression of the frame error rate (FER) for SMIR protocol is derived. Simulation results confirm the presented mathematical analysis and show that SMIR protocol gains 2 and 3 dB in signal to noise ratio (SNR) over the conventional protocol for 3-and 5-bit/symbol transmissions respectively. Moreover, under this protocol the system can achieve a much higher throughput, which means that our proposed protocol brings significant gain in performance.展开更多
