Abstract
Since their launching as voice only networks, mobile communication networks have witnessed a perpetual evolution. In the last years, the attention was addressed to high data rate networks. The lately 3GPP released LTE-Advanced network was the first to completely fulfill 4G requirements. However, performance gains remain limited due to severe interference levels. This paper is a survey upon the evolution of interference mitigation solutions for advanced mobile networks. This problem was addressed since earlier releases by coordinating transmission/reception among different cells. Many enhancements were then carried out by each subsequent specification. The originality of this work resides on the comparison between the different schemes and the perspective of developing a new interference coordination method available for 4G and beyond systems with small cells deployment. Several similarities between the different schemes are noted and differences on performance impact are highlighted.
