  Abstract

It has been known that interference occurs between macrocell ans small-cell base stations in a heterogeneous network (HetNet) of LTE-A. For solving this problem, 3GPP suggested eICIC (Enhanced Inter Cell Interference Coordination) that includes ABS (Almost Blank Subframe) and power control. This paper proposes to use ABS with power control and derives an effective ABS ratio as a function of the number of users and HeNBs. Through simulation, we confirm that integration of ABS and power control can mitigate interference than using ABS only. Furthermore, we verify that an effective ABS ratio is different depending on the number of users and HeNBs.
