| Abstract | To successfully deploy femtocells overlaying the Macrocell as a two-tier that had been shown greatly benefiting communications quality in various manners, it requires to mitigate cross-tier interference between the Macrocell and femtocells, as well as intra-tier interference among femtocells. For this purpose, solutions for interference mitigation have been proposed for femtocells in literatures. However, an essential assumption of these solutions is that all femtocells and the Macrocell shall be synchronized. Such a (network) synchronization of the Macrocells and user deployed femtocells create diverse challenges from conventional synchronization among Macrocells. Existing solutions therefore leverage the global positioning system (GPS) or the wired backhaul (IEEE 1588) to synchronize the Macro-cell and all femtocells, however, they are infeasible for LTE-Advanced femtocells suffering a severe penetration loss of GPS signals and a severe jitter on the backhaul with heterogeneous protocols. As a consequence, each femtocell achieving a timing consensus by leveraging synchronization signals broadcasted by the Macrocell or by the neighboring femtocells turns out to be the possible solution. In this paper, we propose a network synchronization algorithm for femtocells. By only utilizing existing synchronization signals, the proposed network synchronization algorithm achieves the timing consensus among femtocells with and without the present of the Macrocell. Yielding an extremely low computational complexity, the proposed algorithm achieves the essential assumption of interference mitigation solutions in literatures and thus enabling the femtocell technology. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
