Abstract:
Facilitating analysis and resource planning for advanced heterogeneous networks (e.g., 5G, 6G, and beyond) is provided herein. A system is provided that includes a processor and a memory that stores executable instructions that, when executed by the processor, facilitate performance of operations. The operations can include determining that a resource is to be added to existing resources at a grid level of a heterogeneous network. Further, the operations can include selecting candidate locations for placement of the resource based on a coverage-driven objective and a capacity-driven objective defined for the heterogeneous network. The coverage-driven objective can be associated with a demand for services within the grid level of the heterogeneous network. The capacity-driven objective can be associated with demand growth within the grid level of the heterogeneous network. The resource can be a fifth generation millimeter wave node or a cloud radio access network node.
