Abstract


The performance evaluation of Heterogeneous Networks (HetNet) in the 5G era is a major factor that can be used to rate the efficiency of the network. There are many factors that affect the accurate performance of HetNet. One major factor is interference, which leads to high energy consumption due to data retransmission. To tackle this challenge, the Separation Architecture (SARC) was developed. SARC is a HetNet where the control plane is separated from the data plane. To further leverage the advantages of SARC, Hierarchical Heterogeneous Networks (H-HetNet) were introduced, essentially dividing SARC into two tiers: cellular and Device-to-Device (D2D) tiers. Despite these interventions, there is still a need to further improve the performance of SARC due to the high data rates recorded in 5G. In this context, this paper developed an Area Spectral Efficiency (ASE) and Energy Efficiency (EE) model for a Quality-of-Service Aware SARC. In QoSA-SARC, a new model for clustered D2D communication was considered for communication in the data plane. Thus, a new ASE and EE model was developed to accurately estimate the performance of the entire control and data plane, including both Line-of-Sight (LoS) and Non-Line-of-Sight (NLoS) users. Simulation results showed that the ASE performance of QoSA-SARC improved by 2.00% and 8.00% over the conventional SARC at user arrival rates of and . Also, when the EE of the network was analyzed, the QoSA-SARC has an improvement of 11.00% and 15.00% over the conventional SARC at user request arrival rate of and  respectively.
