Abstract

With the increasing development of communication technology, ultra-dense network (UDN) becomes to be the key technology in the fifth generation (5G) communication. More and more small cells appear in the UDN, which leads to serious interference to harm network performance. To solve this problem, this paper proposes a novel scheme with clustered priority-based user-centered interference coordination (CPUCIC). User performance is improved with base station collaboration and interference nulling in the respective cluster area. Numerical results show that related performances with CPUCIC scheme can be improved with respect to signal to interference plus noise ratio (SINR) and spectrum efficiency (SE). Furthermore, its performance improvement is greater than bandwidth cost in most cases, which metrics is user bandwidth gain-to-loss ratio (UBGLR).
