This article surveys the literature over the period of the last decade on the emerging field of
self organisation as applied to wireless cellular communication networks. Self organisation …

Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing Access (OFDMA) has been increasingly
deployed in various emerging and evolving cellular systems to reduce interference and …

This paper presents an overview of the theory and currently known techniques for multi-cell
MIMO (multiple input multiple output) cooperation in wireless networks. In dense networks …

The success of LTE heterogeneous networks (HetNets) with macrocells and picocells
critically depends on efficient spectrum sharing between high-power macros and low-power …

Embedding pico/femto base-stations and relay nodes in a macro-cellular network is a
promising method for achieving substantial gains in coverage and capacity compared to …

With the introduction of femtocells, cellular networks are moving from the conventional
centralized network architecture to a distributed one, where each network cell should make …

The emerging paradigm of the Internet of Everything, along with the increasing demand of
Internet services everywhere, results in a remarkable and continuous growth of the global …

In order to expand the downlink (DL) coverage areas of picocells in the presence of an
umbrella macrocell, the concept of range expansion has been recently proposed, in which a …

The widely accepted OFDMA air interface technology has recently been adopted in most
mobile standards by the wireless industry. However, similar to other frequency-time …

In this paper we consider the problem of maximizing the number of supported connections in
arbitrary wireless networks where a transmission is supported if and only if the signal-to …
