Abstract
In this letter, a distributed self-organized cell association scheme is proposed for heterogeneous cellular networks. In which each small cell uses a common self-organization strategy and takes its environment into account to establish its own cell association scheme. It is confirmed that the proposed cell association improves the user throughput and areal spectral efficiency compared to joint association.
