“…Because of the NP‐hardness of the previously described shared development for user integration and channel or power control, finding the proper solution is no easy job. For example, the solution can be approached by sequentially examining the user's affiliation and power level until an agreement is established 37,44,45 . Fixed channel allocation or transmission coordination can help increase user engagement before optimizing channel transmission coordination either way 4,29,31,33 .…”

“…To increase system efficiency in heterogeneous networks with high user power transfers and low‐level restrictions, a user organization algorithm was proposed in Reference 16. User engagement in heterogeneous networks was improved by raising the ratio of data for all users to total power usage in Reference 45. In contrast to Reference 45, where the focus was on problem‐solving, 10 writers studied how to reduce total energy use while still meeting the needs of traffic users through user engagement.…”

In contrast to Reference 45, where the focus was on problem‐solving, 10 writers studied how to reduce total energy use while still meeting the needs of traffic users through user engagement. In order to improve the peak signal‐to‐noise ratio, the authors of Reference 7 advocated that video content recognition of user interaction be used to decrease heterogeneous networks measuring and power consumption of the system.…”

“…The importance of the backhaul in the context of the 4G LTE network was not completely acknowledged among these difficulties. Moreover, it becomes more obvious in 5G and beyond technologies 45 . Even if a complete backhaul is used, most studies focus on front‐end performance without considering specific backhaul implementation specifics or any potential bottlenecks in the system's network controller.…”

The potential of fifth‐generation (5G) and beyond wireless connectivity is to deliver higher data rates, much lower latency, more frequent increase in channel capacity, and significant improvements in Quality of Service (QoS), compared to the current Long Term Evolution (LTE) networks. The continued growth of smart devices, the introduction of trending multimedia applications, and the dramatic increase in demand and use of wireless data communication are already causing a significant load on current mobile networks. 5G wireless networks, with enhanced user data rates, delays, capacity and QoS, are anticipated to solve many of the existing problems of mobile networks. In this study, we review the emergent wireless LTE‐A and 5G networks to provide an overview of the challenges and the solutions suggested in recent literature towards forthcoming 6G networks. We first discuss the new structural changes associated with the Radio Access Network (RAN) design, heterogeneous network and LTE or LTE‐Advanced (LTE‐A) network. To understand the challenges and research gaps in 5G and beyond networks, the paper reviews the outstanding features of the new QoS and Self‐Organization Networks (SON) related to the emerging 5G networks. Data rates, bandwidth and coverage have been given significance throughout this review because these are some major challenges towards 6G networks. Since understanding the present state of 5G usage is critical to its adoption, the paper also discusses related field tests, trials, and simulation tests. Finally, we identify existing major research problems and outline potential research areas.

“…Several research have been done on load balancing. The link between cell load and the signal-to-interference-and-noise ratio (SINR) was not taken into account in the research in [14]. Because each cell was merely estimated using the number of users in each cell, this may not be the most accurate way to measure the cell's real load.…”

<span lang="EN-US">Traffic congestion has been one of the major performance limiting factors of heterogeneous networks (HetNets). There have been several load balancing schemes put up to solve this by balancing load among base stations (BSs), but they appear to be unfeasible due to the complexity required and other unsatisfactory performance aspects. Cell range extension (CRE) has been a promising technique to overcome this challenge. In this paper, a permutation based CRE technique is proposed to find the best possible formation of bias for BSs to achieve load balance among BSs. In comparison to the baseline scheme, results depict that the suggested method attains superior performance in terms of network load balancing and average throughput. The complexity of the suggested algorithm is considerably reduced in comparison to the proposed permutation based CRE method it is further modified from.</span>

The goal of deploying LTE‐Advanced heterogeneous networks is to meet the growing need for Quality of Service (QoS), high data rates, and more coverage. Load balancing is one of the biggest problems, especially when User Equipment (UE) uses received signal strength to connect to different transmission power network tiers. Spectrum for small cells has not been used to its full potential. While all the cells are using the same frequency spectrum and the small cells overlap the Macro Cells, preventing interference is another big problem. The proposed Cell Range Extension (CRE) and Almost Blank Sub‐frame (ABS) provides a solution to overcome these challenges. The proposed ABS in this paper is novel because it is a partial muting one rather than the full muting ABS in recent research studies. In addition, the cell association method is by distance rather than conventional Reference Signal Received Power (RSRP). CRE‐ABS has been applied simultaneously to solve both load balancing and interference. Simulation results show that the proposed scheme achieves substantial throughput and Jain's Fairness Index (JFI).
