Self-Organizing Networks (SON): TD-ICIC Implementation In a Network Simulator
Abstract
Co-channel interference is becoming a real headache for operators when deploying HetNets but a solution presents itself in the form of inter-cell interference coordination (ICIC). One form of ICIC is called almost blank subframes (ABS) and in this report one implements an ABS system in a network simulator. The implementation is documented and discussed.
