Evolution towards Coordinated Multi-Point Architecture in Self-Organizing Networks for Small Cell Enhancement Systems

Abstract

This paper explores applications of the coordinated multi-point (CoMP) architecture operation of enhanced node B (eNB) in wireless communication networks featuring device-to-device (D2D) signaling. This is applied to cellular phone coverage for rapid mass transit systems, such as the Taiwan high speed rail transport system, and indoor public environments. The paper is based on formulas pertaining to the link between budget design and guidelines, as well as principles and theories of engineering practice, allowing designers to analyze and fully control the uplink and downlink signals and output power of fiber repeaters linking cellular phones to base stations. Finally, we employ easily installed cellular-over-fiber optic solutions for a small cell enhancement (SCE) system with novel architecture based on a leakage coaxial cable system using LTE-A technology. As a result, we successfully applied enhanced coverage designs for distributed antenna systems. These can be used to create self-organizing networks (SoN) for an Internet of Things.
