Abstract
Due to the popularity of data-hungry devices, like smart phones and tablets, the mobile
operators towards the Fifth Generation (5G) are driven not only to increase their network
capacity but also to boost the life of such battery operated wireless smart devices. One of
the most feasible solutions to cope with this is the evolution from traditional macro-cell
deployments to network densification. Small cells are seen as the best match for network
densification, as they can be opportunistically deployed in the highly irregular way in hot
spots. In consequence, the deployment of dense femtocell networks (DFNs) can be seen as
an efficient spectrum utilization using new spectrum bands but subjected to inter-cell
interference coordination. This presentation will discuss inter-femtocell interference
scenarios in a typical femtocell cluster together with an overview of some of the available
interference management techniques. Since densification of femtocells in an uncoordinated
manner can lead to severe inter-femtocell interference, especially when they share the
same channel and operate in Closed Subscriber Group (CSG) mode, a new Semi-virtual
Clustering Scheme (SVCS) has been proposed. This scheme exploits users status to
categorize femtocells into the victim, aggressor or neutral and each victim femtocell is then
partitioned into two virtual cells. Moreover, the scheme adapts dynamically to the status of
each femtocell in the cluster, being either a victim or a safe femtocell and smartly estimates
the proper partitioning (time or frequency) of resources within the defined clusters.

Semi-Virtual Clustering (SVCS) and Victim-Cell Identifier schemes
(VCIS) for Mitigating Inter-Cell Interference in UDFNs
Densification of femtocells in an uncoordinated manner can lead to severe interfemtocell interference when sharing the same channel and operate in Closed
Subscriber Group (CSG) mode.
Each victim femtocell is then partitioned into two virtual cells serving: (i) victim
users and (ii) safe users.
Two new virtual clusters are then formed. One cluster is for the first virtual cells, but
the latter one retains its original physical cluster, while the other cluster is for their
aggressors. Accordingly, aggressor femtocells become neutral, thereby ensuring
minimum inter-femtocell interference

Based
on users status , in
any cluster, a femtocell can
be classified as any type:
Victim femtocell (F4, F7, F10).
Victim-aggressor femtocell (F1).
Aggressor femtocell (F2, F5, F8, F9).
Neutral femtocell (F3, F6).

Figure shows the number of critical and non- critical UEs compared to
the total number of UEs as a function of the number of UEs per
femtocell.
The average percentage is 25 and 75 for victim and safe UEs
respectively.

Device-to-Device (D2D) architecture improve
throughput, coverage, end-to-end latency.
However, introduces several challenges, such as
interference management between cellular and
D2D users becomes one of the most critical
issues for in-band D2D communication.
If the generated interference is not well
controlled, it will deteriorate the potential
benefits of D2D communication since the overall
cellular capacity and efficiency is degraded
