Abstract
The migration to smart cities will provide citizens with a plethora of services under the umbrella of Internet of Things, such as real time health monitoring, smart vehicular, and road control systems. To meet smart cities’ needs, technological development in the fields of Smart Grid, Big Data processing and Broadband Communication, has started. In particular, the development in the domain of broadband communication must take into account data rate maximization and latency minimization, while keeping eyes on the environmental friendly aspect. One promising concept in this context is the heavy deployment of 4G and beyond networks where energy efficiency is a major focal point. Hence, the focus of this chapter is targeted towards green multicell networks, where dense frequency reutilization is used in smart cities. The ensuing Inter-Cell Interference (ICI) harms radio transmissions and degrades their performances. Thus, a certain degree of ICI Coordination (ICIC) between serving evolved Node B (eNBs) is required to manage the resources and minimize the interference level.
