Co-Tier Interference Reduction with Intelligent Scheduling in between LTE Femtocells

Abstract

In wireless networks, there is an ever-increasing demand for higher system throughput along with growing expectation for all users to be available to multimedia and Internet services. This is especially difficult to maintain at the cell-edge. To deal with the increasing demand of high speed data streaming and good quality voice traffic from mobile users at home, Femtocell Networks are deployed in homes that enables an indoor mobile user to achieve high speed downloading from the internet and make good quality voice calls. Femtocell networks suffer from the problem of interference. In this paper, a contribution to the existing research on the avoidance of interference in Femtocell networks is presented. The proposed methodology designs a resource allocation and reuse mechanism combined with allocating different resource blocks and interference-aware reuse. The presented results show that the proposed methodology can efficiently mitigate the Co-tier as well as Cross-tier interference in LTE based cellular networks and outperform the other mechanism.
