problem Optimizing UAV and FeICIC locations in a three-tier LTE-Advanced network.
method Integrates UAVs as both UE and BS in LTE-Advanced HetNet, uses CRE, ICIC, 3D beamforming, and genetic algorithms for optimization.
result Heuristic algorithms outperform brute-force techniques in achieving better 5pSE and coverage probability.
