Abstract:
HetNet which deployed multiple small cells using the same frequency inside the macro cell is expected as a technology for improving frequency utilization efficiency in mobile communication systems. In HetNet, to cancel or avoid the interference from a macrocell is essential to keep maintaining the frequency utilization efficiency. In this paper, we propose “network coordinated small cell transmission interference canceller”, which cancels the interference from the macro cell by superimposing the cancellation signal on each small cell signal. In general, the transmission power of each small cell is limited. So we propose some control technologies considering maximum transmission power in small cells and evaluate the performance of proposed technologies by using Shannon capacity.

Abstract:
Recently, since mobile traffic increases rapidly, 5G network is required to support eMBB communications. Self-backhauling mmWave overlay heterogeneous network is proposed to realize eMBB at low cost. However, intra-channel interferences among mmWave backhaul links become an issue. This work proposes solutions to this problem through several approaches including proper deployment of mmWave access point, channel allocation when necessary, beam selection including other direction than line of sight, and finally optimal power transmission allocation for alleviating bottleneck of the mesh backhaul networks. Ray-tracing based simulation result shows that the proposed algorithm can cope with bottleneck of the backhaul networks through the effects of the employed interference management schemes.
