Safeguarding 5G wireless communication networks using physical layer security (2015, background): “IEEE Communications Magazine • April 2015 23 power and small coverage areas are often very lightly loaded [6].”
Energy-Efficient Design of MIMO Heterogeneous Networks With Wireless Backhaul (2015, background): “When small cells are densely deployed, forwarding a massive cellular traffic to the backb one network becomes a key problem, and a wireless backhaul is regarded as the only practical sol ution for outdoor scenarios where wired links are not available [12]–[16].”
Energy Efficiency in Wireless Networks via Fractional Programming Theory (2015, background): “• Densely deployed small cells [79, 4, 82], which try to cope with the sheer number of connected nodes by an extensive use of small-cells and relay stations to be placed in critical areas that would be otherwise difficult to serve.”
User Association in 5G Networks: A Survey and an Outlook (2015, background): “Among these challenges, the importance of the backhaul bottleneck has not been fully recognized in the context of the 4G LTE network [20].”
Spatial Modulation for Generalized MIMO: Challenges, Opportunities, and Implementation (2014, background): “As a result, the interference patterns are becoming more complex making the evaluation and design of different communication technologies and protocols more challenging [294].”

Downlink Cellular Network Analysis With Multi-Slope Path Loss Models (2014, background): “Wireless networks are rapidly increasing in density, and in doing so are becoming ever more irregular [5].”
A Survey of Energy-Efficient Techniques for 5G Networks and Challenges Ahead (2016, background): “1) Dense Heterogeneous Networks: Unlike present network deployments which uniformly split a macro-cell into a relatively low number of smaller areas each covered by a light base-station, dense heterogeneous networks drastically increase the number of infrastructure nodes per unit of area [7], [65].”
Analysis on Cache-Enabled Wireless Heterogeneous Networks (2015, background): “However, the exponential growth in traffic also requires the high-speed backhaul for the connection of different type of BSs/relays and content servers [9], [10].”
Spectrum Sharing for Device-to-Device Communication in Cellular Networks (2013, background): “It is interesting to extend this work to (possibly multi-band) heterogeneous networks [41], [42] consisting of different types of lower power nodes besides macro BSs.”
Wireless Device-to-Device Caching Networks: Basic Principles and System Performance (2013, background): “efficiency [4], the necessity of high-speed backhaul makes this option prohibitively expensive.”
Cache-enabled small cell networks: modeling and tradeoffs (2014, background): “To meet this huge burden, small cell networks (SCNs) [2], their combination with Wi-Fi [3], heterogeneous networks (HetNets) [4] and many other ideas both from academia and industry are now becoming essential components of future radio access networks.”
Living on the edge: The role of proactive caching in 5G wireless networks (2014, background): “To date, the vast majority of research works has been dealing with issues related to self-organization, inter-cell interference coordination (ICIC), traffic offloading, energy-efficiency, etc (see [3] and references therein).”
