Fractional Frequency Reuse (FFR), which was introduced by 3GPP is considered the powerful technique to improve user performance. However, implementation of FFR is a challenge due to strong dependence between base stations (BSs) in terms of resource allocations. This paper studies a modified and flexible FFR scheme that allows all BSs works independently. The analytical and simulation results prove that the modified FFR scheme outperforms the conventional FFR.
