Cell Selection andCurrent 3G Cellular Networks
Cell Selection: Which BS covers an MS
MSs demands <<BSs capacities
Mostly voice Data < 15Mb/s
Local SNR-based protocols are pretty good
Generally, one station servicing every client

Cover-by-One (CBO)

Future 4G Cellular Networks High MS demand
Video, data, … x10-x100 higher (100Mb/s-1Gb/s)
Capacities willbe an issue
< x20 higher reduced costs missing good planning solutions
Technology enables having several stations cover a client

A (1-r)/(2-r)-Approx. - Intuition
A local-ratio algorithm• Based on decomposing the profit function
Greedy approach
A CP x for S is maximal if it cannot be extended:
WLOG, is saturated

If p(j)=d(j), Maximality Suffices!
No edge to .
-saturated
Maximal
Solution
Algorithm sketch:
• Decompose profit function:• Demand-proportional chunks
• Recurse!
• Greedily maximize
How?

Summary
4G technology will support cover-by-many. Good approximation algorithms for realistic
scenarios. CBM is 10%-20% better than SNR-based
methods.
Future Work:• Practical: Online & local CBM policies
• Theoretical: Approximation independent of r ?
