Abstract :
In this paper, we investigate the coverage of Geo-Clustering Algorithm (GCA) in heterogeneous networks where pico cells are added to complement the coverage holes by macro cell based layout. GCA is considered to plan the cellular network based on geographical elements. Coverage probability is used as the performance metric and compared with GCA without pico cells.
