Energy-efficiency for MISO-OFDMA based user-relay assisted cellular networks
The concept of improving energy-efficiency (EE) without sacrificing the service quality has become important nowadays. The combination of orthogonal frequency-division multiple-access (OFDMA) multi-antenna transmission technology and relaying is one of the key technologies to deliver the promise of reliable and high-data-rate coverage in the most cost-effective manner. In this paper, EE is studied for the downlink multiple-input single-output (MISO)-OFDMA based user-relay assisted cellular networks. EE maximization is formulated for decode and forward (DF) relaying scheme with the consideration of both transmit and circuit power consumption as well as the data rate requirements for the mobile users. The quality of-service (QoS)-constrained EE maximization, which is defined for multi-carrier, multi-user, multi-relay and multi-antenna networks, is a non-convex and combinatorial problem so it is hard to tackle. To solve this difficult problem, a radio resource management (RRM) algorithm that solves the subcarrier allocation, mode selection and power allocation separately is proposed. The efficiency of the proposed algorithm is demonstrated by numerical results for different system parameter
Resource Allocation for Outdoor-to-Indoor Multicarrier Transmission with Shared UE-side Distributed Antenna Systems
In this paper, we study the resource allocation algorithm design for downlink
multicarrier transmission with a shared user equipment (UE)-side distributed
antenna system (SUDAS) which utilizes both licensed and unlicensed frequency
bands for improving the system throughput. The joint UE selection and
transceiver processing matrix design is formulated as a non-convex optimization
problem for the maximization of the end-to-end system throughput (bits/s). In
order to obtain a tractable resource allocation algorithm, we first show that
the optimal transmitter precoding and receiver post-processing matrices jointly
diagonalize the end-to-end communication channel. Subsequently, the
optimization problem is converted to a scalar optimization problem for multiple
parallel channels, which is solved by using an asymptotically optimal iterative
algorithm. Simulation results illustrate that the proposed resource allocation
algorithm for the SUDAS achieves an excellent system performance and provides a
spatial multiplexing gain for single-antenna UEs.Comment: accepted for publication at the IEEE Vehicular Technology Conference

Linear Precoding Designs for Amplify-and-Forward Multiuser Two-Way Relay Systems
Two-way relaying can improve spectral efficiency in two-user cooperative
communications. It also has great potential in multiuser systems. A major
problem of designing a multiuser two-way relay system (MU-TWRS) is transceiver
or precoding design to suppress co-channel interference. This paper aims to
study linear precoding designs for a cellular MU-TWRS where a multi-antenna
base station (BS) conducts bi-directional communications with multiple mobile
stations (MSs) via a multi-antenna relay station (RS) with amplify-and-forward
relay strategy. The design goal is to optimize uplink performance, including
total mean-square error (Total-MSE) and sum rate, while maintaining individual
signal-to-interference-plus-noise ratio (SINR) requirement for downlink
signals. We show that the BS precoding design with the RS precoder fixed can be
converted to a standard second order cone programming (SOCP) and the optimal
solution is obtained efficiently. The RS precoding design with the BS precoder
fixed, on the other hand, is non-convex and we present an iterative algorithm
to find a local optimal solution. Then, the joint BS-RS precoding is obtained
by solving the BS precoding and the RS precoding alternately. Comprehensive
simulation is conducted to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed
precoding designs.Comment: 13 pages, 12 figures, Accepted by IEEE TW
Energy-Efficient Power Control: A Look at 5G Wireless Technologies
This work develops power control algorithms for energy efficiency (EE)
maximization (measured in bit/Joule) in wireless networks. Unlike previous
related works, minimum-rate constraints are imposed and the
signal-to-interference-plus-noise ratio takes a more general expression, which
allows one to encompass some of the most promising 5G candidate technologies.
Both network-centric and user-centric EE maximizations are considered. In the
network-centric scenario, the maximization of the global EE and the minimum EE
of the network are performed. Unlike previous contributions, we develop
centralized algorithms that are guaranteed to converge, with affordable
computational complexity, to a Karush-Kuhn-Tucker point of the considered
non-convex optimization problems. Moreover, closed-form feasibility conditions
are derived. In the user-centric scenario, game theory is used to study the
equilibria of the network and to derive convergent power control algorithms,
which can be implemented in a fully decentralized fashion. Both scenarios above
are studied under the assumption that single or multiple resource blocks are
employed for data transmission. Numerical results assess the performance of the
proposed solutions, analyzing the impact of minimum-rate constraints, and
comparing the network-centric and user-centric approaches.Comment: Accepted for Publication in the IEEE Transactions on Signal
