N2 - The deployment of long term evolution (LTE) in unlicensed spectrum (LTE-U) is a promising solution to overcome the spectrum shortage. However, the interaction between LTE-U and Wi-Fi in unlicensed spectrum has not been well understood. In this paper, we use stochastic geometry to develop a framework for the co-existence between LTE-U and Wi-Fi in unlicensed spectrum. To reduce the intra-and inter-RAT interference, LTE-U employs an ALOHA-like random access scheme and Wi-Fi performs carrier sensing and energy detection before transmission. We derive the retention probability and the coverage probability of Wi-Fi and LTE-U networks. Based on our analysis, we investigate the effect of network parameters on the coverage probability of these networks.
