Abstract

In this letter, the influence of the downlink average ratio of the other cell interference to other-user interference in the serving cell (DARI) on the distributed repeater system (DRS) performance is analyzed. It is found that the improvement of DARI depends on a propagation path loss environment. Applying the computed DART to a 3-RS DRS cell, as high as 13.9% capacity enhancement was obtained when the path loss exponent is 4.5. In addition, by using the power allocation equation, it is expected that a hexagonal DRS cell without coverage holes or excessive coverage overlap can be realized.
