Abstract:
Technology for partitioning small cell physical-layer cell identities (PCI) at a node in a heterogeneous network (HetNet) is disclosed. One method can include the node identifying at least one small cell PCI of a plurality of small cells in a macro cell. Each small cell PCI can be associated with a low power node (LPN) in the HetNet. The node can generate a small cell PCI list to include the at least one small cell PCI. The node can broadcast the small cell PCI list to a wireless device.
