Non-regular layout for cellular network system simulations

TLDR
The results shows that the Springwald layout provides a simulation environment where the system level performance is comparable with the reference scenarios, however, with some additional features of the non-regular effects.
Abstract
This paper defines a synthetic non-regular Springwald network layout which is easy to take into use in cellular network system simulations. The performance of the non-regular layout was compared with two regular 3GPP simulation scenarios. The benefit of the non-regular layout is that it reflects better the live network deployments and therefore results in more realistic benchmarking metrics. The results shows that the Springwald layout provides a simulation environment where the system level performance is comparable with the reference scenarios, however, with some additional features of the non-regular effects.

Pairwise interaction processes for modeling cellular network topology

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors use tools from spatial statistics to show that a purely random node placement and a hexagonal grid distribution with the points perturbed also have unrealistic spatial relationships between nodes, and that pairwise interactions between nodes are necessary and sufficient for modeling spatial qualities of cellular networks.

Optimizing the Radio Network Parameters of the Long Term Evolution System Using Taguchi's Method

TL;DR: Setting typical radio network parameters of the Long Term Evolution (LTE) system, i.e., the uplink power control parameters, antenna tilts, and azimuth orientations of trisectored macro base stations, reveals that Taguchi's method is a promising approach for radio network optimization with respect to performance and computational complexity.
