Cloud radio access network: Virtualizing wireless access for dense heterogeneous systems [PDF]
Cloud Radio Access Network (C-RAN) refers to the virtualization of base station functionalities by means of cloud computing. This results in a novel cellular architecture in which low-cost wireless access points, known as radio units (RUs) or remote radio heads (RRHs), are centrally managed by a reconfigurable centralized "cloud", or central, unit (CU).

On Designing Energy-Efficient Heterogeneous Cloud Radio Access Networks
Heterogeneous cloud radio access network (H-CRAN) promises higher energy efficiency (EE) than the conventional cellular networks by centralizing the baseband signal processing into the baseband unit (BBU) pool hosted by cloud computing platforms. Because of the difference between H-CRAN and conventional cellular networks, existing energy-efficient ...

A new network slicing framework for multi-tenant heterogeneous cloud radio access networks [PDF]
Research on network slicing for multi-tenant heterogeneous cloud radio access networks (H-CRANs) is still in its infancy. In this paper, we redefine network slicing and propose a new network slicing framework for multi-tenant H-CRANs. In particular, the network slicing process is formulated as a weighted throughput maximization problem that involves ...
