Channel Capacity Maximization using NQHN Approach at Heterogeneous Network

In present scenario, the high speed data transmission services has pushed limits for wireless communication network capacity, at same time multimedia transmission in real-time needs provision of QoS, therefore the network capacity and small cell coverage has comes with lots of challenges. Improving the channel capacity and coverage area within the available bandwidth is necessary to provide better QoS to users, and improved channel capacity for the FCUs and MCUs in network. In this paper, we are proposing an NQHN approach that incorporate with efficient power allocation, improving the channel capacity by optimized traffic scheduling process in a small cell HetNets scenario. This work efficiently handle the interference with maintaining the user QoS and the implemented power controller uses HeNB power as per the real time based approach for macro-cell and femto-cell. Moreover, we consider the real traffic scenario to check the performance of our proposed approach with respect to existing algorith

Energy and Spectral Efficiency Tradeoff in OFDMA Networks via Antenna Selection Strategy

In this paper, we investigate the joint resource allocation and antenna selection algorithm design for uplink orthogonal frequency division multiple access (OFDMA) communication system. We propose a multi-objective optimization framework to strike a balance between spectral efficiency (SE) and energy efficiency (EE). The resource allocation design is formulated as a multi-objective optimization problem (MOOP), where the conflicting objective functions are linearly combined into a single objective function employing the weighted sum method. In order to develop an efficient solution, the majorization minimization (MM) approach is proposed where a surrogate function serves as a lower bound of the objective function. Then an iterative suboptimal algorithm is proposed to maximize the approximate objective function. Numerical results unveil an interesting tradeoff between the considered conflicting system design objectives and reveal the improved EE and SE facilitated by the proposed transmit antenna selection in OFDMA systems.Comment: This paper is Accepted by IEEE Wireless Communications and Networking Conference (WCNC

Heterogeneous network optimization using robust power-and-resource based algorithm

In order to meet the increasing mobile data-traffic, spatial densification of network with several low-power nodes, the high-power macro BS and HetNet are the major key enabling solution. However, the HetNet is unplanned in nature, causes irregularities and interferences that without any user association rules. The appropriate deployment of the femto-cell in HetNet can provide effective traffic offloading, where the alleviate mobbing in the macro-cells can decrease the power consumption therefore it optimizes the user experience. Moreover, the protection is also important for the macro and femto cell users in a network through maintaining the min-max level of interferences. In this paper, we proposed RPRA that comprises two robust approach such as robust power-controller and the robust channel-allocation approach, which can improve the spectral efficiency and user experiences at lower network coverage areas via eliminating the week coverage zones. Also provide high user rate connection by effective interference in an efficient spectrum, lowering in transmission power and cost-effectiveness via less time delay. To show the effectiveness of our proposed model we have compared with several existing techniques and we got significant improvement in throughput, also reduction in time delay and transmission power

A model-driven deep reinforcement learning heuristic algorithm for resource allocation in ultra-dense cellular networks

Resource allocation in ultra dense network (UDN) is an multi-objective optimization problem since it has to consider the tradeoff among spectrum efficiency (SE), energy efficiency (EE) and fairness. The existing methods can not effectively solve this NP-hard nonconvex problem, especially in the presence of limited channel state information (CSI). In this paper, we investigate a novel model-driven deep reinforcement learning assisted resource allocation method. We first design a novel deep neural network (DNN)-based optimization framework consisting of a series of Alternating Direction Method of Multipliers (ADMM) iterative procedures, which makes the CSI as the learned weights. Then a novel channel information absent Q-learning resource allocation (CIAQ) algorithm is proposed to train the DNN-based optimization framework without massive labeling data, where the SE, the EE, and the fairness can be jointly optimized by adjusting discount factor. Our simulation results show that, the proposed CIAQ with rapid convergence speed not only well characterizes the extent of optimization objective with partial CSI, but also significantly outperforms the current random initialization method of neural network and the other existing resource allocation algorithms in term of the tradeoff among the SE, EE and fairness

Robust Planning and Operation of Multi-Cell Homogeneous and Heterogeneous Networks

International audienceIn this work, we propose a robust planning tool that allocates power statically in homogeneous and heterogeneous cellular networks with non-regular base station (BTS) placement, to mitigate interference and improve overall performance. Each BTS will use the total available spectrum, but it will divide it into multiple sub-bands, and each BTS will transmit with a specific pre-computed power on each sub-band. We refer to such a power allocation as a power map. Our offline planning tool computes a robust power map for a given topology, by solving a non-convex, non-linear optimization problem, through simple transformations, based on geometric programming. The power map is computed based solely on the network topology, and it is made available to all BTSs that use it throughout the network operation to perform scheduling using a fast quasi-optimal online algorithm that we propose. We evaluate our planning tool for different homogeneous and heterogeneous networks (HetNets), first in a static setting where scheduling is performed optimally and then in a dynamic setting when scheduling is performed with our online scheduler. Results show that our solution significantly outperforms a classical equal power/fixed frequency reuse scheme in terms of sum-rate, by up to 30% in homogeneous networks and by up to 70% in HetNets

Survey on the state-of-the-art in device-to-device communication: A resource allocation perspective

Device to Device (D2D) communication takes advantage of the proximity between the communicating devices in order to achieve efficient resource utilization, improved throughput and energy efficiency, simultaneous serviceability and reduced latency. One of the main characteristics of D2D communication is reuse of the frequency resource in order to improve spectral efficiency of the system. Nevertheless, frequency reuse introduces significantly high interference levels thus necessitating efficient resource allocation algorithms that can enable simultaneous communication sessions through effective channel and/or power allocation. This survey paper presents a comprehensive investigation of the state-of-the-art resource allocation algorithms in D2D communication underlaying cellular networks. The surveyed algorithms are evaluated based on heterogeneous parameters which constitute the elementary features of a resource allocation algorithm in D2D paradigm. Additionally, in order to familiarize the readers with the basic design of the surveyed resource allocation algorithms, brief description of the mode of operation of each algorithm is presented. The surveyed algorithms are divided into four categories based on their technical doctrine i.e., conventional optimization based, Non-Orthogonal-MultipleAccess (NOMA) based, game theory based and machine learning based techniques. Towards the end, several open challenges are remarked as the future research directions in resource allocation for D2D communication
