Adaptive De-Coupling and Multi-BS Association in Heterogeneous Networks

This paper proposes a novel method for maximizing the spatial frequency reuse in cellular networks by exploiting the possibility to simultaneously associate each user to multiple base-stations (BSs). To this end, the proposed technique presents a criterion for determining when a user should be assoc...
