Resource allocation in OFDMA networks with half-duplex and imperfect full-duplex users
Recent studies indicate the feasibility of in-band fullduplex (FD) wireless
communications, where a wireless radio transmits and receives simultaneously in
the same band. Due to its potential to increase the capacity, analyzing the
performance of a cellular network that contains full-duplex devices is crucial.
In this paper, we consider maximizing the weighted sum-rate of downlink and
uplink of a single cell OFDMA network which consists of an imperfect FD
base-station (BS) and a mixture of half-duplex and imperfect full-duplex mobile
users. To this end, the joint problem of sub-channel assignment and power
allocation is investigated and a two-step solution is proposed. A heuristic
algorithm to allocate each sub-channel to a pair of downlink and uplink users
with polynomial complexity is presented. The power allocation problem is
convexified based on the difference of two concave functions approach, for
which an iterative solution is obtained. Simulation results demonstrate that
when all the users and the BS are perfect FD nodes the network throughput could
be doubled, Otherwise, the performance improvement is limited by the inter-node
interference and the self-interference. We also investigate the effect of the
self-interference cancellation capability and the percentage of FD users on the
network performance in both indoor and outdoor scenarios.Comment: 6 pages, 8 figures, Accepted in IEEE International Conference on

Low Complexity WMMSE Power Allocation In NOMA-FD Systems
In this paper we study the problem of power and channel allocation with the
objective of maximizing the system sum-rate for multicarrier non-orthogonal
multiple access (NOMA) full duplex (FD) systems. Such an allocation problem is
non-convex and, thus, with the goal of designing a low complexity solution, we
propose a scheme based on the minimization of the weighted mean square error,
which achieves performance reasonably close to the optimum and allows to
clearly outperforms a conventional orthogonal multiple access approach.
Numerical results assess the effectiveness of our algorithm.Comment: 5 pages conference paper, 3 figures. Submitted on ICASSP 202
Dynamic Time-domain Duplexing for Self-backhauled Millimeter Wave Cellular Networks
Millimeter wave (mmW) bands between 30 and 300 GHz have attracted
considerable attention for next-generation cellular networks due to vast
quantities of available spectrum and the possibility of very high-dimensional
antenna ar-rays. However, a key issue in these systems is range: mmW signals
are extremely vulnerable to shadowing and poor high-frequency propagation.
Multi-hop relaying is therefore a natural technology for such systems to
improve cell range and cell edge rates without the addition of wired access
points. This paper studies the problem of scheduling for a simple
infrastructure cellular relay system where communication between wired base
stations and User Equipment follow a hierarchical tree structure through fixed
relay nodes. Such a systems builds naturally on existing cellular mmW backhaul
by adding mmW in the access links. A key feature of the proposed system is that
TDD duplexing selections can be made on a link-by-link basis due to directional
isolation from other links. We devise an efficient, greedy algorithm for
centralized scheduling that maximizes network utility by jointly optimizing the
duplexing schedule and resources allocation for dense, relay-enhanced OFDMA/TDD
mmW networks. The proposed algorithm can dynamically adapt to loading, channel
conditions and traffic demands. Significant throughput gains and improved
resource utilization offered by our algorithm over the static,
globally-synchronized TDD patterns are demonstrated through simulations based
on empirically-derived channel models at 28 GHz.Comment: IEEE Workshop on Next Generation Backhaul/Fronthaul Networks -

Enhancing Physical Layer Security in AF Relay Assisted Multi-Carrier Wireless Transmission
In this paper, we study the physical layer security (PLS) problem in the dual
hop orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) based wireless
communication system. First, we consider a single user single relay system and
study a joint power optimization problem at the source and relay subject to
individual power constraint at the two nodes. The aim is to maximize the end to
end secrecy rate with optimal power allocation over different sub-carriers.
Later, we consider a more general multi-user multi-relay scenario. Under high
SNR approximation for end to end secrecy rate, an optimization problem is
formulated to jointly optimize power allocation at the BS, the relay selection,
sub-carrier assignment to users and the power loading at each of the relaying
node. The target is to maximize the overall security of the system subject to
independent power budget limits at each transmitting node and the OFDMA based
exclusive sub-carrier allocation constraints. A joint optimization solution is
obtained through duality theory. Dual decomposition allows to exploit convex
optimization techniques to find the power loading at the source and relay
nodes. Further, an optimization for power loading at relaying nodes along with
relay selection and sub carrier assignment for the fixed power allocation at
the BS is also studied. Lastly, a sub-optimal scheme that explores joint power
allocation at all transmitting nodes for the fixed subcarrier allocation and
relay assignment is investigated. Finally, simulation results are presented to
validate the performance of the proposed schemes.Comment: 10 pages, 7 figures, accepted in Transactions on Emerging
