Abstract

The application of stochastic geometry theory for the study of cellular networks has gained huge popularity recently. Most existing works however rely on unrealistic assumptions concerning the underlying user traffic model. This paper aims to make a step in this direction by devising a new model for the performance analysis and optimization of heterogeneous cellular networks (HetNets) with irregular BS deployment and flow- level traffic dynamics. We provide a unified methodology for the evaluation of the flow rate with closed-form expressions of the useful signal power and aggregate network interference over Nakagami-m fading channels. The problem of computing the optimal loading factors which result in the greatest sustainable traffic whilst the system remains stable is formulated and tackled.
