and full-duplex are promising techniques for future 5G communication systems
where interference has become the most challenging issue to be addressed. In this paper
we provide an interference coordination framework for a two-tier heterogeneous network (HetNet) that consists of a massive-MIMO enabled macro-cell base station (MBS) and a number of full-duplex small-cell base stations (SBSs). To suppress the interferences and maximize the throughput
the full-duplex mode of each SBS at the wireless backhaul link (i.e.
in-band or out-of-band)
which has a different impact on the interference pattern
should be carefully selected. To address this problem
we propose two centralized algorithms
a genetic algorithm (GEA) and a greedy algorithm (GRA). To sufficiently reduce the computational overhead of the MBS
a distributed graph coloring algorithm (DGCA) based on {price} is further proposed. Numerical results demonstrate that the proposed algorithms significantly improve the system throughput.
