Title
Heterogeneous Cellular Networks With LoS and NLoS Transmissions - The Role of Massive MIMO and Small Cells.
Abstract
We develop a framework for downlink heterogeneous cellular networks with line-of-sight (LoS) and non-LoS transmissions. Using stochastic geometry, we derive tight approximation of average downlink rate that enables us to compare the performance between densifying small cells and expanding base station (BS) antenna arrays. Interestingly, we find that adding small cells into the network improves the...
