Abstract
Full duplex (FD) communication has attracted the
attention of the industry and the academia as an important
feature in the design of the future 5th generation (5G) wireless
communication system. Such technology allows a device to simultaneously
transmit and receive in the same frequency band, with
the potential of providing higher throughput and lower latency
compared to traditional half duplex (HD) systems. In this paper,
the interaction between Transport Control Protocol (TCP) and
FD in 5G ultra-dense small cell networks is studied. TCP is
a well-known transport layer protocol for providing reliability,
which comes at the price of increased delay and reduced system
throughput. FD is expected to accelerate the TCP congestion
control mechanism and hence mitigate such consequences. System
level results show that FD can outperform HD and alleviate
the TCP drawbacks when the inter-cell interference is not the
main limiting factor. On the other hand, under strong inter-cell
interference, results show that the capabilities of the system to
cope with such interference dictates the gain that FD may provide
over HD.
