A Review on HetNet in LTE-Advanced

Abstract

Purpose: Currently, when using a 4G network, there are issues with data speed, interference, and network coverage. Therefore, advancement within the network was required to eliminate this issue. It can be resolved using a heterogeneous network. Connection quality of service and data speed can be improved through heterogeneous network connections. It can be used in LTE Advanced because it is adaptable and inexpensive to deploy. The heterogeneous network has low latency, a larger spectrum, and a high data rate as additional benefits.

Design/Methodology/Approach: This paper proposes different techniques used in a heterogeneous network. After going through many research papers, data is collected about differences in Small Cells which is explained in this paper.

Findings: A heterogeneous network is a collection of different cell powers that create interference while connecting when used in a network. As a result, there ought to be some methods for getting rid of cell interference.

Originality/value: This review paper will play an important role in understanding how can the problem of network coverage and data speed can be improved by using different techniques using HetNet in a 5G network.
