The first and only up-to-date guide offering complete coverage of Het Nets—written by top researchers and engineers in the field
Small Cell Networks: Deployment, Management, and Optimization addresses key problems of the cellular network evolution towards Het Nets. It focuses on the latest developments in heterogeneous and small cell networks, as well as their deployment, operation, and maintenance. It also covers the full spectrum of the topic, from academic, research, and business to the practice of Het Nets in a coherent manner. Additionally, it provides complete and practical guidelines to vendors and operators interested in deploying small cells.
The first comprehensive book written by well-known researchers and engineers from Nokia Bell Labs, Small Cell Networks begins with an introduction to the subject—offering chapters on capacity scaling and key requirements of future networks. It then moves on to sections on coverage and capacity optimization, and interference management. From there, the book covers mobility management, energy efficiency, and small cell deployment, ending with a section devoted to future trends and applications. The book also contains:
* The latest review of research outcomes on Het Nets based on both theoretical analyses and network simulations
* Over 200 sources from 3GPP, the Small Cell Forum, journals and conference proceedings, and all prominent topics in Het Net
* An overview of indoor coverage techniques such as metrocells, picocells and femtocells, and their deployment and optimization
* Real case studies as well as innovative research results based on both simulation and measurements
* Detailed information on simulating heterogeneous networks as used in the examples throughout the book
Given the importance of Het Nets for future wireless communications, Small Cell Networks: Deployment, Management, and Optimization is sure to help decision makers as they consider the migration of services to Het Nets. It will also appeal to anyone involved in information and communication technology.
