Probabilistic Analysis on QoS Provisioning for Internet of Things in LTE-A Heterogeneous Networks With Partial Spectrum Usage.

This paper investigates quality of service (QoS) provisioning for Internet of Things (IoT) in long-term evolution advanced (LTE-A) heterogeneous networks (HetNets) with partial spectrum usage (PSU). In HetNets, the IoT users with ubiquitous mobility support or low-rate services requirement can connect with macrocells (MCells), while femtocells (FCells) with PSU mechanism can be deployed to serve t...
