Downlink Spectrum Allocation for In-Band and Out-Band Wireless Backhauling of Full-Duplex Small Cells.

In-band full-duplex (IBFD) backhauling is a potential technique for wireless backhauling of small cells that allows the use of same spectrum for the backhaul and access links of the small cell base stations (SBSs) concurrently, however, at the expense of backhaul interference and self-interference (SI). This paper investigates the problem of optimal access/backhaul spectrum allocation considering ...
