Abstract

This letter presents a distributed user association algorithm for the load balancing in heterogeneous networks. In this new method, we formulate the load balancing problem as a max min throughput problem. To solve this problem, we propose a distributed max-throughput algorithm. The main advantages of this algorithm include low computational complexity and few free parameters. Analysis and simulation results show that the proposed algorithm is very practical due to its simplicity.
