Abstract

In this paper, a macro cell switching scheme for distributed antennas is proposed. In conventional distributed antenna transmission (DAT), a macro cell to which each antenna belongs is fixed. Though a cell-free system has been investigated because of its higher system throughput, the complexity of front-haul can be inevitably large. To increase the flexibility of resource allocation in the DAT with moderate front-haul complexity, the macro cell switching of distributed antennas (DAs) is proposed. In the proposed scheme, DAs switch their attribution macro cells depending on the amount of pre-assigned resources. Numerical results obtained through computer simulation show that the proposed scheme realizes a better system throughput than the conventional system especially when the number of user equipments (UEs) is smaller.
