Joint Relay Selection and Power Allocation for Cooperative Cellular Networks

The principal purpose of this paper is to develop a joint relay selection and power allocation algorithm in cooperative cellular networks with multiple users assisted by multiple relays. By solving a rate optimization problem, we can obtain the optimal solutions and the distributed implementation based on the primal-dual decomposition. An admission control algorithm is also presented when there exists the minimal rate requirement for each user. Simulation results indicate that the algorithm with joint design is superior to the existing ones with isolated design in large total transmission rates and small deviations. Moreover, with the admission control algorithm, the rate requirements for users participating in cooperation are also satisfied.

Resource Allocation for Device-to-Device Communications Based on Guard Area Underlying Cellular Networks

Device-to-Device (D2D) communications have drawn considerable attention with the obvious advantages of a higher data rate and spectrum efficiency. However, this also brings intra-cell interference due to resource sharing with traditional Cellular users (CUs). An effective resource allocation scheme for D2D communications to maximize the system throughput is developed. This scheme first utilizes the guard area model to restrict the interference between D2D users (DUs) and CUs. Then, a max-flow algorithm is used to match the pair of CUs and DUs and maximize the total sum rate of the communication system. Numeral results demonstrate that the proposed scheme can yield significant throughput gain while maintaining quality for both CUs and DUs.     

Effective Interference Cancellation Schemes for Device-to-Device Multicast Uplink Period Underlaying Cellular Networks

Device-to-Device (D2D) multicast will become an important technology with the increasing requirements of local communication services in future networks. To increase the overall capacity and improve resource utilization, a novel interference coordination scheme is proposed. The proposed scheme includes three steps. First, in order to mitigate the interference from D2D multicast transmission to cellular networks (CNs), a dynamic power control scheme is proposed that can determine the upper bound of D2D transmitter power based on the location of Base Station and areas of adjacent cells from the coverage area of D2D multicast group. Next, an interference limited area control scheme that reduces the interference from CNs to each D2D multicast receiver is proposed. The proposed scheme does not allow the coexistence of cellular equipments (CUEs) located in the interference limited area to reuse the same resources as the D2D multicast group. Then two resource block (RB) allocation rules are proposed to select the appropriate RBs from a candidate RB set for D2D multicast group. From the simulation results, it is confirmed that the proposed schemes improve the performance of the hybrid system compared to the conventional ways.     

Location- and Service-Aware Downlink Transmission Power Allocation in WCDMA-Based Cellular Networks

Power constitutes an essential controllable resource for the improvement of the radio link performance in Wideband Code Division Multiple Access (WCDMA)-based cellular networks. In addition, complementary to traditional services, location-based services (LBS) have emerged as a growing area for mobile service providers bringing in the foreground the potential for a location-aware resource management. To this effect, this paper addresses a location- and service-aware downlink transmission power allocation problem (DTPA), the solution of which is suitable for the management or control domain of multi-service, WCDMA-based cellular networks. Given a specific traffic load situation that includes location and required service information, the solution of the DTPA problem aims at finding the optimum feasible allocation of power to the set of downlink connections that should be supported by the system. The problem is concisely defined, mathematically formulated and solved by a computationally efficient algorithm. Simulation and numerical results are presented.

Distributed Power Control for Energy Conservation in Hybrid Cellular Network with Device-to-Device Communication

Device-to-Device （D2D） com- munication has been proposed as a promising implementation of green communication to benefit the existed cellular network. In order to limit cross-tier interference while explore the gain of short-range communication, we devise a series of distributed power control （DPC） schemes for energy conservation （EC） and enhancement of radio resource utilization in the hybrid system. Firstly, a constrained opportunistic power control model is built up to take advantage of the interference avoidance methodology in the presence of service requirement and power constraint. Then, biasing scheme and admission control are added to evade ineffective power consumption and maintain the feasibility of the system. Upon feasibility, a non-cooperative game is further formulated to exploit the profit in EC with minor influence on spectral efficiency （SE）. The convergence of the DPC schemes is validated and their performance is confirmed via simulation results.     

基于QoS和干扰温度约束的多用户认知无线电网络最优功率分配(英文)

Power allocation is an important issue for Cognitive Radio Networks(CRNs),since it needs to consider the Quality of Service(QoS) for Secondary Users(SUs) while maintaining the interference power to Primary User(PU) below the Interference Temperature(IT) threshold. In this paper, based on Euclidean projection, we propose a distributed power control algorithm with QoS requirements to minimise the total power consumption of SUs under the time-varying channel scenario. Considering the maximum transmit power constraints and the minimum signal to interference plus noise constraints for each SU, together with the IT constraints for each PU, the power allocation problem is transformed into a convex optimization problem without auxiliary variables, and is solved by the Lagrangian dual method with less information exchange.Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed scheme is superior to the Iterative Water-Filling Algorithm(IWFA).     

Outage Performance Analysis for Device-to-Device Communication Underlying Small Cell Networks with Wireless Power Transfer

Device-to-Device (D2D) communication and wireless small cell networks (SCNs) are two of the most promising paradigms in next generation cellular technologies. However, interference management is a major issue in regard to the use of either or both technologies. In this paper, we propose a D2D pair underlying SCNs using Wireless Power Transfer (WPT) technology. In particular, we have a D2D transmitter and D2D receiver underlying SCNs and operate in close proximity to a SCN primary user (PU). Two scenarios are proposed. The first scenario is when the best base station (BS) link is chosen to harvest energy from, and a second scenario where energy is harvested from all available SCN BSs. The transmission between the D2D pair is kept under a certain threshold so it could not have any harmful effects on the transmission link of PU. The results reveal that the number of interference users shows negative effect on the performance of the considered system. Besides, the primary network’s peak interference constraint has significant influence on the optimal value of energy harvesting time at the D2D transmitter.     

Integrated Optimal Cell Site Selection and Frequency Allocation for Cellular Radio Networks

Two major planning problems are encountered when designing a cellular radio network. The initial question is where to locate the base transmitter stations such that full coverage is achieved at low interference. This is relevant for frequency division (FDMA) as well as code division multiple access (CDMA) technology. If the locations of base stations are given, then for an FDMA-system frequencies have to be assigned such that there is a sufficient number of channels per cell available at a low total interference level. Since cell site selection and frequency allocation have mutual influences on each other, the ultimate goal is to deal with both problems in a single design step. The main intention of this paper is to model the above planning issues as linear integer programs, and to discuss solution methods for the corresponding NP-hard problems. According to their increasing complexity we proceed from channel allocation via cell site selection to an integrated single setup.

Joint Spectrum Allocation and Relay Selection in Cellular Cognitive Radio Networks

Cognitive Radio Network (CRN) has been proposed in recent years to solve the spectrum scarcity problem by exploiting the existence of spectrum holes. One of the important issues in the cellular CRNs is how to efficiently allocate primary user (PU) spectrum inside a CRN cell without causing harmful interference to PUs. In this paper, we present a cross-layer framework which jointly considers spectrum allocation and relay selection with the objective of maximizing the minimum traffic demand of secondary users (SUs) in a CRN cell. Specifically, we consider (1) CRN tries to utilize PU spectrum even when the CRN cell is not completely outside the protection region of the PU cell, and (2) cooperative relay is used in cellular CRNs to improve the utilization of PU spectrum. We formulate this cross-layer design problem as a Mixed Integer Linear Programming (MILP) and propose a low complexity heuristic algorithm to solve it. Compared to a simple channel allocation scheme, the numerical results show a significant improvement by using our proposed method and the performance is close to the optimal solution. We further consider the spectrum allocation among several CRN cells with the objective of maximizing the overall minimum throughput of all cells while ensuring each individual cell’s minimum throughput requirement. A low complexity algorithm is proposed to achieve the objective with satisfactory performance.
