Abstract:
In this paper, we present three spectrum allocation techniques, namely Static and Equal Spectrum Allocation (SESA), Flexible and Unequal Spectrum Allocation (FUSA), and Countrywide Full Spectrum Allocation (CFSA), and evaluate their performances for the 28 GHz millimeter-wave spectrum using in-building small cells. We discuss each technique broadly by identifying major concerns, presenting possible solutions, as well as evaluating performances relative to each other in terms of Spectral Efficiency (SE), Energy Efficiency (EE), and Cost Efficiency (CE). It is found that FUSA improves SE by 22.8%, EE by 18.56%, and CE by 18.56%, whereas CFSA improves SE by 164.27%, EE by 74.77%, and CE by 59.64% in comparison with that of SESA. As CFSA outperforms SESA and FUSA, CFSA can be considered as a potential spectrum allocation technique for the existing and next-generation mobile networks to allow a large spectrum availability, as well as efficient spectrum utilization, for an operator to serve high indoor data rates and capacity demands.
