Indoor deployments for providing coverage and capacity inside buildings is an attractive option for cellular network operators as most of the traffic in today's cellular networks is generated indoors. This paper studies the benefit of indoor traffic offloading on the overall network capacity using a new method that allows assessing the network performance gains considering different levels of traffic offloading without the need to decide beforehand which buildings to deploy the indoor solutions in or the exact type of indoor solution used in each building. Using this method, we evaluate the impact of different amounts of indoor traffic offload and the performance of three different indoor deployment strategies on a study case network selected as a typical real world ultra dense urban area. The results show that choosing the most cost-effective buildings (lowest cost per traffic offload) first in the indoor deployment plan leads to highest network capacity gains for the same level of investment.
