This paper provides an analytical framework to characterize the performance\nof Heterogeneous Networks (HetNets), where the positions of base stations and\nusers are modeled by spatial Poisson Point Processes (stochastic geometry). We\nhave been able to formally derive outage probability, rate coverage\nprobability, and mean user bit-rate when a frequency reuse of K and a novel\nprioritized SIR-based cell association scheme are applied. A simulation\napproach has been adopted in order to validate our analytical model;\ntheoretical results are in good agreement with simulation ones. The results\nobtained highlight that the adopted cell association technique allows very low\noutage probability and the fulfillment of certain bit-rate requirements by\nmeans of adequate selection of reuse factor and micro cell density. This\nanalytical model can be adopted by network operators to gain insights on cell\nplanning. Finally, the performance of our SIR-based cell association scheme has\nbeen validated through comparisons with other schemes in literature.\n
