Abstract :
We study a method of cognitive interference management in user-deployed 3G femtocell networks. Each femtocell cognitively recognizes an interference signature from the network environment and opportunistically allocates the proper channel patterns for interference minimization. Simulation results show great channel SINR improvement by implementing our opportunistic channel scheduler. The approach offers a novel view of autonomous spectrum management based on cognitive interference recognition and adaptive channel management.
