Abstract
Femtocells and WiFi have been considered as viable concepts in cellular networks to increase overall system capacity. Critical functionalities for the successful integration of such technologies in macro-cellular topologies are related to radio resource allocation and interference management techniques that must ensure seamless intra-cell and inter-cell interoperation among macro- and femto users, as well as between cellular and WiFi users. In this paper, various interference management approaches using rich context information are proposed and discussed for various scenarios of interest, along with a specific assessment for co-channel access points deployment in cellular networks
