Performance analysis for MU-MIMO enabled LTE-U networks coexisting with D2D and WiFi network
LTE-Unlicensed (LTE-U) network is a type of cellular communication network operating the unlicensed spectrum. Offloading cellular traffic to WiFi or Device-to-Device (D2D) network can lead to interference among them. Applying Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (MIMO) technology in Cellular Base Station (CBS) and WiFi Access Point (WAP) can effectively reduce interference among D2D, WiFi and cellular networks. To our best knowledge, there is still no literature to explicitly study the characteristics of the traffic offloading in the Multiple-User MIMO (MU-MIMO) enabled network coexisting with D2D and WiFi networks. In this article, we thoroughly investigate the impact of D2D communication and MU-MIMO enabled WAP and CBS on the performance of the LTE-U network. More specifically, we derive the expressions of the downlink rates for cellular users, D2D users, and WiFi users with incomplete Channel State Information (CSI) feedback, and we validate our analysis through Monte-Carlo simulation. Numerous results illustrate the following conclusions. (i) Increasing the number of WiFi users, the length of CSI feedback, and the quantity of D2D pairs that reuse the channel with a single cellular user can increase the total throughput of the heterogeneous network. (ii) The total throughput decreases when more than two users are offloaded to D2D pairs, and increases as the number of offloaded users increases when less than six users are offloaded to WiFi network. (iii) Simultaneously offloading traffic to D2D pairs and WiFi network can obtain higher total throughput than offloading traffic to only one of them.
