Downlink Interference Control in Heterogeneous Cellular Networks: Macroscopic and Microscopic Control.

In heterogeneous cellular networks that consist of macrocells and small cells, efficient interference management schemes between macrocells and small cells are crucial for overall system performance. To mitigate intercell interference, we propose macroscopic and microscopic interference control schemes. First, as a macroscopic interference control scheme, we propose a dynamic coordinated silencing...
