Abstract

Uplink scheduling in Long‐Term Evolution (LTE) systems with distributed base stations (DBSs) is considered. In the proposed model, users are connected to remote radio heads (RRHs) deployed throughout the cell and connected to a central base station. Centralised and distributed scheduling with a DBS are compared to centralised scheduling with a central base station. Monte Carlo simulation results show that LTE systems with DBSs achieve better throughput than systems with conventional base stations while allowing edge users better chances of accessing the resources.
