Coordinated Multipoint Communications in Heterogeneous Networks Yiye Chen Supervisor : Prof. JyriHämäläinen Instructor : Beneyam B. Haile MSc. in Communications Engineering Aalto University
Agenda Background and Motivation SimulationDeploymentScenario Evaluation Results Conclusion Futurework
Background & Motivation • 3GPP release 11: • Heterogeneous Network(HetNet) • Coordinated Multipoint(CoMP) Escalated Cellular Service Requirements: High data rate Spectral efficiency per unit area Uniform user experience Coverage expansion Enlarge capacity
Background & Motivation • Coordinated Multipoint(CoMP)
Background & Motivation • Literatures and field trials about CoMP between macro cells • In 3GPP Rel-11, mixed CoMP between macro BSs and remote radio heads(RRH) is evaluated and documented. Objectives of this Thesis • Evaluate CoMP with Matlab in HetNet between small cell and macro cell • Develop the CoMP UE selection Criterion to benefit throughput of system and manage RBs allocation • Evaluate CoMP under other scnarios Previous Contribution:

SimulationDeploymentScenario CoMP UE Selection Criteria: Criterion I: < Rx Power Threshold Criterion II: < Rx Power Threshold : The strongest Rx power of signal from macro cell. : The strongest Rx power of signal from small cell.

Conclusion • Conventional CoMP UE Selection Criterion does not fit Round-Robin scheduling algorithm. • With an improved CoMP UE Selection Criterion, CoMP merely between macro cell and small cell brings about over maximum 70% for QCP and 40% for DPS/DPB average throughput gain on cell edge UEs. • Higher density of UEs near small cell leads to more throughput gain. • Randomly locate small cells within macro cells may lose some throughput gain, but CoMP is still worthy to be deployed under this case.
Future work • Simulation about uplink CoMP between macro cell and small cell in HetNet. • Modified simulators with non-ideal backhaul to make scenario closer to the reality
