Dual-Branch MRC Receivers under Spatial Interference Correlation and Nakagami Fading

Ralph Tanbourgi, Harpreet S. Dhillon, Jeffrey G. Andrews +1

Despite being ubiquitous in practice, the performance of maximal-ratio combining (MRC) in the presence of interference is not well understood. Because the interference received at…

Downlink Multi-Antenna Heterogeneous Cellular Network with Load Balancing

Abhishek K. Gupta, Harpreet S. Dhillon, Sriram Vishwanath +1

We model and analyze heterogeneous cellular networks with multiple antenna BSs (multi-antenna HetNets) with K classes or tiers of base stations (BSs), which may differ in terms of…

An Overview of Load Balancing in HetNets: Old Myths and Open Problems

Jeffrey G. Andrews, Sarabjot Singh, Qiaoyang Ye +2

Matching the demand for resources ("load") with the supply of resources ("capacity") is a basic problem occurring across many fields of engineering, logistics, and economics, and h…

Physical Layer Security in Downlink Multi-Antenna Cellular Networks

Giovanni Geraci, Harpreet S. Dhillon, Jeffrey G. Andrews +2

In this paper, we study physical layer security for the downlink of cellular networks, where the confidential messages transmitted to each mobile user can be eavesdropped by both (…

Fundamentals of Heterogeneous Cellular Networks with Energy Harvesting

Harpreet S. Dhillon, Ying Li, Pavan Nuggehalli +2

We develop a new tractable model for K-tier heterogeneous cellular networks (HetNets), where each base station (BS) is powered solely by a self-contained energy harvesting module.…

Effect of Spatial Interference Correlation on the Performance of Maximum Ratio Combining

Ralph Tanbourgi, Harpreet S. Dhillon, Jeffrey G. Andrews +1

While the performance of maximum ratio combining (MRC) is well understood for a single isolated link, the same is not true in the presence of interference, which is typically corre…

Fundamentals of Throughput Maximization with Random Arrivals for M2M Communications

Harpreet S. Dhillon, Howard C. Huang, Harish Viswanathan +1

For wireless systems in which randomly arriving devices attempt to transmit a fixed payload to a central receiver, we develop a framework to characterize the system throughput as a…

Downlink Rate Distribution in Heterogeneous Cellular Networks under Generalized Cell Selection

Harpreet S. Dhillon, Jeffrey G. Andrews

Considering both small-scale fading and long-term shadowing, we characterize the downlink rate distribution at a typical user equipment (UE) in a heterogeneous cellular network (He…
