Effective adaptive transmit power allocation algorithm considering dynamic channel allocation in reuse partitioning-based OFDMA system

This paper introduces an transmit power allocation (TPA) algorithm considering dynamic channel allocation (DCA) for a reuse-partitioning- based Orthogonal frequency division multiple access (OFDMA)/FDD cellular system. The proposed reuse partitioning-based DCA algorithm guarantees quality of service (QoS) by considering fairness among mobile stations in an OFDMA/FDD system. However, to improve the SINR values for users around the cell edge and increase the overall system throughput compared with the conventional OFDMA/FDD system of frequency reuse factor (FRF) 1, an effective TPA algorithm is also combined with the proposed DCA to adjust the transmit power per user according to the average received SINR value. Simulation results show that the proposed DCA algorithm increases the sector throughput by about 25% when compared with the conventional case that do not apply the proposed DCA algorithm. When the proposed TPA is combined with the proposed DCA algorithm, a further increase in the sector throughput of about 6% is achieved than when using just the proposed DCA algorithm.     

An efficient handoff algorithm based on received signal strength and wireless transmission loss in hierarchical cell networks

Compared with the macrocell systems, the femtocell systems allow users to obtain broadband service with high data rate by using lower costs of transmit power, operation and capital expenditure. Traditional handoff algorithms used in macrocells cannot well satisfy the mobility of users efficiently in hierarchical macro/femto cell networks. In this paper based on the received signal strength (RSS) and wireless transmission loss, a new handoff algorithm in hierarchical cell networks called RWTL-HO is proposed, which considers the discrepancy in transmit power between macrocell and femtocell base stations. The simulation results show that compared with the conventional algorithm, the proposed algorithm improves the utilization of femtocells by doubling the number of handoffs; and in comparison with the handoff algorithm based on combining the RSSs from both macro and femto cell base stations, reduces half the number of redundant handoffs.

Efficient handoff algorithm for inbound mobility in hierarchical macro/femto cell networks

To improve indoor coverage and network capacity, the use of hierarchical macro/femto cell networks is regarded as the most promising approach. We present an efficient handoff algorithm to support the inbound mobility from macro cells to femto cells under the consideration of large asymmetry in the transmit power of the cells. Numerical analysis reveals that the proposed algorithm yields a higher probability that the user will be correctly assigned to the femto cell while maintaining the number of handoffs at the same level.

Resource allocation for NOMA based D2D underlaid cellular networks

This paper puts forward a user clustering and power allocation algorithm for non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) based device-to-device (D2D) cellular system. Firstly, an optimization problem aimed at maximizing the sum-rate of the system is constructed. Since the optimization problem is a mixed-integer non-convex optimization, it is decomposed into two subproblems, namely user clustering and power allocation subproblem. In the subproblem of user clustering, the clustering algorithms of cellular user and D2D pair are proposed respectively. In the power allocation subproblem, the gradient assisted binary search (GABS) algorithm and logarithmic approximation in successive convex approximation (SCA) are used to optimize the power of subchannel (SC) and D2D transmitted power respectively. Finally, an efficient joint iterative algorithm is proposed for the original mixed inter non-convex non-deterministic polynomial (NP)-hard problem. The simulation results show that the proposed algorithm can effectively improve the total system rate and the larger the ratio of cellular users (CUs) to total users, the larger the total system rate.     

Power allocation and temporal fair user group scheduling for downlink NOMA

Non-Orthogonal Multiple Access (NOMA) has been proposed as a new radio access technique for cellular networks as an alternative to OMA (Orthogonal Multiple Access) in which the users of a group (pairs or triples of users in a group are considered in this paper) are allowed to use the wireless channel simultaneously. In this paper, for downlink single-input single-output SISO-NOMA, a heuristic power allocation algorithm within a group is first proposed which attempts to ensure that the users of a group benefit from simultaneous transmission equally in terms of achievable throughput. Moreover, a user group scheduling algorithm is proposed for downlink NOMA systems by which a user group is to be dynamically selected for transmission while satisfying long term temporal fairness among the individual contending users. The effectiveness of the proposed power allocation method along with the temporal fair scheduling algorithm for downlink NOMA is validated with simulations and the performance impact of the transmit power and the coverage radius of the base station as well as the number of users are thoroughly studied.

Spectrum sensing and power/rate control in CDMA cognitive radio networks

In this paper, a two‐phase algorithm for the spectrum sensing and power/rate control of a secondary user (S‐user) or cognitive radio is proposed. In the first phase, the primary base station (P‐BS), which is conscious of both the number and the data rate of primary active users (P‐user), broadcasts theitusage capacity percentage (UCP) of its cell. Since knowing only the UCP is not enough to guarantee that the total load (of P‐users and S‐users) is less than a maximum permissible load, the S‐user must measure the total interference received from both the P‐users and other S‐users. In this direction, using both the UCP and measurement of the interference received from the P‐users and the S‐users by the S‐user or secondary base station (S‐BS), we mathematically derive an equation for issuing data transmission permission, which if it is held then the second phase of the algorithm: the transmit power/rate control starts. In this phase, the S‐user and the S‐BS look for feasible values for the transmit power level and transmission rate. If there are feasible values, it starts its transmission at these feasible transmit power and rate. Since both the location of the S‐user and the channel condition vary in time, the whole algorithm is iterated periodically with a period faster than the coherence time of the channel. Furthermore, we consider the down link of the above system with cooperation among neighboring S‐users to overcome fading channels and we investigate the amount of improvement in the reliability of the issuing data transmission permission. As well, we consider the uplink of the system with multiple antennas in the S‐BS to investigate the improvement in the same parameter over spatially correlated and independent fading channels. Theoretical analysis is validated using computer simulations. Both theoretical analysis and computer simulations show that the proposed cooperative spectrum sensing algorithm performs properly at SNR = ?5dB in flat Nakagami‐m fading channels with m = 1 even in correlated fading channels. We also address the improvement of the reliability of the issuing data transmission permission in the uplink in case of using multiple antennas only in the S‐BS.

A coalitional game‐based relay load balancing and power allocation scheme in decode‐and‐forward cellular relay networks

In this paper, a game theoretic relay load balancing and power allocation scheme is proposed for downlink transmission in a decode‐and‐forward orthogonal frequency division multiple access‐based cellular relay network. A system with a base station communicating with multiple users via multiple relays is considered. The relays have limited power, which must be divided among the users they support. In traditional scheme, each relay simply divides its transmit power equally among all its users. Moreover, each user selects the relay with the highest channel gain. In this work, we do not apply the traditional relay scheme. It is because the users are distributed randomly, and by applying the traditional relay selection scheme, it may happen that some relays have more users connected to them than other relays, which results in having unbalanced load among the relays. In order to avoid performance degradation, achieve relay load balancing, and maximize the total data rate of the network, a game theoretic approach is proposed, which efficiently assigns the users to relays. The power of each relay is wisely distributed among users by the efficient power allocation scheme. Simulation results indicate that the proposed game‐based scheme can considerably improve the average sum‐spectral efficiency. Moreover, it shows that by applying the game, users who can connect to uncongested relays join them as opposed to connecting to congested relays. Copyright © 2015 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Adaptive cell sectorization for CDMA systems

Given the user distribution in a cell, we investigate the two problems of how to appropriately sectorize the cell such that we minimize the total received power and the total transmit power of all the users, while giving each user acceptable quality of service in both cases. For the received power optimization problem, we show that the optimum arrangement equalizes the number of users in each sector. The transmit power optimization is formulated as a graph partitioning problem that is polynomially solvable. We provide an algorithm that finds the best sectorization assignment as well as the optimal transmit powers for all the users. The computational complexity of the algorithm is polynomial in the number of users and sectors. For both the received power optimization and the transmit power optimization, under nonuniform traffic conditions, we show that the optimum arrangement can be quite different from uniform cell sectorization (equal width sectors). We also formulate and solve the transmit power optimization and cell sectorization problem in a multicell scenario that would improve the capacity of a hot spot in the network. We observe that, with adaptive sectorization, where the sector boundaries are determined in response to users' locations, received and transmit power savings are achieved, and the number of users served by the system (system capacity) is increased compared to uniform sectorization of the cell     

Multiuser OFDM with adaptive subcarrier, bit, and power allocation

Multiuser orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) with adaptive multiuser subcarrier allocation and adaptive modulation is considered. Assuming knowledge of the instantaneous channel gains for all users, we propose a multiuser OFDM subcarrier, bit, and power allocation algorithm to minimize the total transmit power. This is done by assigning each user a set of subcarriers and by determining the number of bits and the transmit power level for each subcarrier. We obtain the performance of our proposed algorithm in a multiuser frequency selective fading environment for various time delay spread values and various numbers of users. The results show that our proposed algorithm outperforms multiuser OFDM systems with static time-division multiple access (TDMA) or frequency-division multiple access (FDMA) techniques which employ fixed and predetermined time-slot or subcarrier allocation schemes. We have also quantified the improvement in terms of the overall required transmit power, the bit-error rate (BER), or the area of coverage for a given outage probability     

Transmit power adaptation for multiuser OFDM systems

In this paper, we develop a transmit power adaptation method that maximizes the total data rate of multiuser orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) systems in a downlink transmission. We generally formulate the data rate maximization problem by allowing that a subcarrier could be shared by multiple users. The transmit power adaptation scheme is derived by solving the maximization problem via two steps: subcarrier assignment for users and power allocation for subcarriers. We have found that the data rate of a multiuser OFDM system is maximized when each subcarrier is assigned to only one user with the best channel gain for that subcarrier and the transmit power is distributed over the subcarriers by the water-filling policy. In order to reduce the computational complexity in calculating water-filling level in the proposed transmit power adaptation method, we also propose a simple method where users with the best channel gain for each subcarrier are selected and then the transmit power is equally distributed among the subcarriers. Results show that the total data rate for the proposed transmit power adaptation methods significantly increases with the number of users owing to the multiuser diversity effects and is greater than that for the conventional frequency-division multiple access (FDMA)-like transmit power adaptation schemes. Furthermore, we have found that the total data rate of the multiuser OFDM system with the proposed transmit power adaptation methods becomes even higher than the capacity of the AWGN channel when the number of users is large enough.
