Comparison between Two Implementations of ParFlow for Simulating Femtocell Networks
Résumé
In the context of heterogeneous networks, femtocells are very promising. In order to properly simulate their behavior and their impact on the macrocell layer, it is necessary to be able to simulate the radio coverage of femtocells. Hence ParFlow is a possible deterministic model that can be used for such simulation. In this paper two implementations of ParFlow are presented: time domain and frequency domain. The performance are compared and the advantages/drawbacks of each model are investigated.
