However, its performance is constrained by the capability of fronthaul. To study the performance limit of C.Het Nets, the coverage performance of the open access strategy in C.Het Nets is analyzed in this paper. In particular, the non.ideal condition of fronthaul in C.Het Nets is characterized by establishing a stochastic geometry.based model, and a tight lower bound on coverage probability is derived for downlink transmissions. Based on the derived results, the constraint of the fronthaul is given to ensure that open access strategy can achieve the best coverage performance. Finally, the simulation results are provided to verify the theoretical results and show the impact of fronthaul constrains.展开更多
