Zero-Outage Cellular Downlink with Fixed-Rate D2D Underlay
Two of the emerging trends in wireless cellular systems are Device-to-Device
(D2D) and Machine-to-Machine (M2M) communications. D2D enables efficient reuse
of the licensed spectrum to support localized transmissions, while M2M
connections are often characterized by fixed and low transmission rates. D2D
connections can be instrumental in localized aggregation of uplink M2M traffic
to a more capable cellular device, before being finally delivered to the Base
Station (BS). In this paper we show that a fixed M2M rate is an enabler of
efficient Machine-Type D2D underlay operation taking place simultaneously with
another \emph{downlink} cellular transmission. In the considered scenario, a BS
transmits to a user , while there are Machine-Type Devices (MTDs)
attached to , all sending simultaneously to and each using the same rate
. While assuming that knows the channel , but not the interfering
channels from the MTDs to , we prove that there is a positive downlink rate
that can always be decoded by , leading to zero-outage of the downlink
signal. This is a rather surprising consequence of the features of the multiple
access channel and the fixed rate . We also consider the case of a
simpler, single-user decoder at with successive interference cancellation.
However, with single-user decoder, a positive zero-outage rate exists only when
and is zero when . This implies that joint decoding is
instrumental in enabling fixed-rate underlay operation.Comment: Revised versio
An adaptive social-aware device-to-device communication mechanism for wireless networks
Device-to-Device (D2D) communication is an essential element in 5G networks, which enables users to communicate either directly without network assistance or with minimum signaling through a base station. For an effective D2D communication, related problems in mode and peer selection need to be addressed. In mode selection, the problem is how to guarantee selection always chooses the best available mode. In peer selection, the problem is how to select optimum peers among surrounding peers in terms of connection conditions and social relationships between peers. The main objectives of this research are to identify mode selection between devices and
establishing a connection with the best D2D pair connection without privacy leakage. Multi-Attribute Decision Making and Social Choice theories are applied to achieve the objectives. Mode selection scheme is based on Received Signal Strength (RSS), delay and bandwidth attributes to choose and switch among the available modes intelligently based on the highest ranking. Then, the peering selection scheme is proposed using RSS, delay, bandwidth and power attribute to find an optimum peer with concerning social relationship, by evaluating trust level between peers and excluding the untrusted peers from ranking which will increase the optimum quality of D2D connection.
The proposed schemes are validated and tested using MATLAB. Two main scenarios, namely crowded network and user speed were considered to evaluate the proposed mechanism with three existing approaches where the selection is based on a single attribute. The obtained results showed that the proposed mechanism outperforms other approaches in terms of delay, signal to noise ratio, delivery ratio and throughput with better performance up to 70%. The proposed mechanism provides a smooth switching between different modes and employs an automatic peering selection with trusted peers only. It can be applied in different types of network that serves the massive number of users with different movement speed of the user
