Abstract :
Femtocell networks are a cost-effective way to deliver the bandwidth needed to support advanced mobile data services in heavily congested urban and indoor locations. Locally-networked femtocell arrays are used to enhance mobile network coverage and capacity in crowded urban and indoor locations. Cluster based femtocell deployments in large indoor environments provide a flexible approach to improve localized coverage and performance. In this paper, the performance of cluster based femtocell deployments along with a capacity based cognitive resource allocation scheme is analysed under different channel configurations in a hybrid access control network. The results of a performance analysis of the cluster based femtocell configurations in a priority based users´ network are presented.
