Joint User Association and Energy Offloading in Downlink Heterogeneous Cellular Networks
As a key technology in Long-Term Evolution-Advanced (LTE-A) mobile communication systems, heterogeneous cellular networks (HCNs) add low-power nodes to offload the traffic from macro cell and therefore improve system throughput performance. In this paper, we investigate a joint user association and...
