Spectrum-Energy-Economy Efficiency Trade-off of Wireless Communication Systems with Separated Indoor/Outdoor Scenarios for 5G and B5G

Abstract

In this paper, we consider a heterogeneous 5G cellular architecture that separates the outdoor and indoor scenarios and in particular study the trade-off between the spectrum efficiency (SE), energy efficiency (EE), economy efficiency (ECE). Mathematical expressions for the system capacity, EE, SE, and ECE respectively are derived using a proposed realistic power consumption model. The comparison of system performance in terms of SE, EE, and ECE, results in the observation that the proposed network architecture, which separates the outdoor and indoor scenarios, offers a promising solution for future communication systems that have strict requirements on the data rate and efficiency.

This paper was rejected by IEEE Transaction on wireless communications, due to some significant technical errors. In this case, we should withdraw this paper and will submit a revised version to avoid these errors from misleading others
