Impact of Resource Blocks Allocation Strategies on Downlink Interference and SIR Distributions in LTE Networks: A Stochastic Geometry Approach

Figure 7

Modulation and coding rate for the allocation strategy when the density of eNodeB increases (Figure 7(a)), for different reuse factor (Figure 7(b)), and comparison with the two heuristics (Figure 7(c)).

(a) allocation: varies; = 3. CR=coding rate

(b) allocation: = 3, 6, and 9; = 2.25

(c) and the two heuristics: = 6; = 2.25
