Abstract

The wireless communication network has seen rapid growth, especially with the widespread use of smartphones, but resources are increasingly limited, especially indoors. Femtocell, a spectrum-efficient small cellular network solution, faces challenges in distributed power control (DPC) when deployed with distributed users, impacting power levels, and causing interference in the main network. The aim of this research is optimizing user power consumption in co-tier femtocell networks by using the user power treatment. This study proposed the Distributed Power Control (DPC) variation methods such as Distributed Constrained Power Control (DCPC), Half Distributed Constrained Power Control (HDCPC), and Generalized Distributed Constrained Power Control (GDCPC) in co-tier femtocell network. The research examines scenarios where user power converges but exceeds the maximum threshold or remains semi-feasible, considering factors like number of users, distance, channel usage, maximum power values, non-negative power vectors, Signal-to-Interference-plus-Noise Ratio (SINR), and link gain matrix values. In Distributed Power Control (DPC), distance and channel utilization affect feasibility conditions: feasible, semi-feasible, and non-feasible. The result shows that Half Distributed Constrained Power Control (HDCPC) is more effective than Distributed Constrained Power Control (DCPC) in semi-feasible conditions due to its efficient power usage and similar Signal-to-Interference-plus-Noise Ratio (SINR). Half Distributed Constrained Power Control (HDCPC) is also easier to implement than Generalized Distributed Constrained Power Control (GDCPC) as it does not require user deactivation when exceeding the maximum power limit. Distributed Power Control (DPC) variations can shift the power and Signal-to-Interference-plus-Noise Ratio (SINR) conditions from non-convergence to convergence at or below the maximum power level. We concluded that the best performance of Distributed Power Control (DPC) is Half Distributed Constrained Power Control (HDCPC).
