Abstract

In this paper we set out to analyze the indoor capacity under a realistic high-rise building scenario. The study takes into consideration the number of indoor cells deployed per floor, different inter-site distances (ISDs), transmit power settings and outdoor macro interference levels. The outcome shows large variation in performance gain just by optimizing indoor cell locations, highlighting the need for thorough indoor radio planning. Investing into more indoor cells helps to increase capacity, and also to cope better with outdoor interference, but the gain tends to be diminishing due to the increase of inter-cell interference (ICI). Increasing transmit power brings largest gain when the density of indoor cell is low, and the noise and/or outdoor interference is the dominant source of performance degradation. When analyzing performance gain of an ideal receiver-side Interference Cancellation (IC) algorithm, the study also shows that, if the Dominant Interferer Removal (DIR) rate is below 50%, doubling the number of indoor cells would bring better capacity gain than investing into such an IC receiver.
