contents Integrating non-terrestrial networks (NTNs), in particular high altitude platform stations (HAPS), with terrestrial networks, referred to as vHetNets, emerges as a promising future wireless network architecture for providing ubiquitous connectivity. In this context, optimizing the performance of vHetNets has become a paramount concern, particularly in harmonized spectrum vHetNets, where HAPS and terrestrial networks share the same frequency band, resulting in severe inter-/intra-tier interference. This paper provides a comparative analysis of different objective functions, specifically focusing on weighted sum rate (WSR), network-wide proportional fairness (NW-PF), and network-wide max-min fairness (NW-MMF), with an aim to design a joint user association scheme and multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) beamforming weights in a vHetNet, operating in an urban area. The simulation results comprehensively compare the behavior of different objective functions in vHetNets and standalone terrestrial networks. This analysis aims to shed light on the impact of diverse objective functions on the achievable spectral efficiency (SE) of vHetNets.
