Abstract
Cellular networks are increasingly densified to deal with fast growing wireless traffic. Interference mitigation plays a key role for the dense cellular networks. Successive interference cancellation (SIC) and fractional frequency reuse (FFR) are two representative inter-cell interference (ICI) mitigation techniques. In this paper we study the application of both SIC and FFR for LTE uplink networks, and develop an analytical model to investigate their interactions and impact on network performance. The performance gains with FFR and SIC are related to key system functionalities and variables, such as SIC parameters, FFR bandwidth partition, uplink power control and sector antennas. The ICIs from individual cell sectors are approximated by log-normal random variables, which enables low complexity computation of the aggregate ICI with FFR and SIC. Then network performance of site throughput and outage probability is computed. The model is fast and has small modelling deviation, which is validated by system level simulations. Numerical results show that both SIC and FFR can largely improve network performance, but SIC has an impact over FFR. In addition, most of the network performance gains with SIC could be obtained with a small number of SIC stages applied to a few sectors.
