Περίληψη: | To satisfy the ever-increasing data rate and service coverage demands, wireless communication networks evolve into
heterogeneous networks (HetNets), where low-cost small base stations are embedded in conventional macrocells.
Intercell interference emerges as the key capacity-limiting factor in such dense networks, restricting the reusability of
spectral resources. Therefore, advanced interference mitigation techniques relying on multi-cell cooperation have
attracted significant attention from the wireless industry and academia. This paper discusses interference
management schemes for multi-tiered spectrum access in next-generation HetNets. A novel scheme based on full
system cognition and base station cooperation is proposed as an enabler for high-capacity HetNets. In addition,
practical implementation and operational challenges are investigated.
