Abstract
In this paper, we propose a step-wise optimal low power node (LPN) deployment algorithm for LTE heterogeneous networks. Our proposed LPN deployment algorithm takes signal quality, relative loading among macro cells and LPN cells, and user density into account. Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm can achieve close to 100% coverage gain and more than 50% average cell throughput gain over a random LPN deployment scheme.
