Nowadays, the network traffic has increasedexponentially due to amount of information and numberof users which are connected to Heterogeneous Networks(HetNets) in this case we focus on LTE-WiFitechnologies. This is an important issue that need to solvefor an efficient network communication process end toend. The aim of this article is to present the-state-of-theart about performance models for LTE-WiFi HetNets anda classification of key performance metrics which help toanalyze HetNets behaviour. The article concludes with amethodology that will be applied later for this researchproblem, as well as opened research questions. Webelieve, that apply our methodology using accurate andsuitable models in HetNets the transmission process willhave a fairness traffic when both networks coexist.
