Joint Load Balancing of Downlink and Uplink for eICIC in Heterogeneous Network

The 3GPP has proposed enhanced intercell interference coordination (eICIC) by making the macrocell silent in the almost blank subframes (ABSs) to mitigate interference for low-power base stations (BSs) in the downlink direction. However, two important challenges are introduced: 1) the underutilizati...
