Title
User association in small cell heterogeneous network with downlink sum rate
Abstract
This paper is concerned with the optimal association of user equipments (UEs) to the base stations, which are either a macro base station or pico base stations, for the sum rate utility in a cooperative heterogeneous network (HetNet). This is a nonconvex combinatorial problem. By recasting the problem as a d.c (difference of convex (d.c.)) program, the optimal association solution is sought by d.c iterations (DCI), each of which solves a simple convex quadratic problem over a convex set. Numerical simulation shows the efficiency of the proposed procedure in term of performance and computational time.
