    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 - BackNets 201

So, we consider OFDMA system and the ideas described in this paper could be easily applied to the current and next generation mobile communication systems. This paper studies two basic research themesa QoS packet scheduler design and fixed relay resource management policies based on frequency reuse in mobile networks. This paper considers novel scheduler structures that are executable in the environments of multiple traffic classes and multiple frequency channels. To design a scheduler structure for multiple traffic classes, we first propose a scheduler selection rule that uses the priority of traffic class and the urgency level of each packet. Then we relax the barrier of traffic class priority when a high priority packet has some room in waiting time. This gives us a chance to exploit multiuser diversity, thereby giving more flexibility in scheduling. Our considered scheduler can achieve higher throughput compared to the simple extension of conventional modified largest weighted delay first (MLWDF) scheduler while maintaining the delay performance for QoS class traffic. We also design a scheduler structure for multiple frequency channels that chooses a good channel for each user whenever possible to exploit frequency diversity. The simulation results show that our proposed scheduler increases the total system throughput by up to 50% without degrading the delay performance. This paper also introduces radio resource management schemes based on frequency reuse for fixed relay stations in mobile cellular networks. Mobile stations in the cell boundary experience poor spectral efficiency due to the path loss and interference from adjacent cells. Therefore, satisfying QoS requirements of each MS at the cell boundary has been an important issue. To resolve this spectral efficiency problem at the cell boundary, deploying fixed relay stations has been actively considered. In this paper, we consider radio resource management policies based on frequency reuse for fixed relays that include path selection rules, frequency reuse pattern matching, and frame transmission pattern matching among cells. We evaluate performance of each policy by varying parameter values such as relay stations position and frequency reuse factor. Through Monte Carlo simulations and mathematical analysis, we suggest some optimal parameter values for each policy and discuss some implementation issues that need to be considered in practical deployment of relay stations. We also surveyed further works that many researchers have been studied to tackle the similar problems of QoS scheduling and resource management for relay with our proposed work. We expect that there would be more future works by priority-based approach and energy-aware approach for QoS scheduling. Also current trends such as the rising interest in IoT system, discussion of densification of cells and D2D communications in 5G systems make us expect that the researches in these topics related with relays would be popular in the future. We also think that there are many interesting problems regarding QoS support and resource management still waiting to be tackled, especially combined with recent key topics in mobile communication systems such as 5G standardization, AI and NFV/SDN.Chapter 1 Introduction 1 1.1 QoS Packet Scheduler 4 1.2 Fixed Relay Frequency Reuse Policies 6 Chapter 2 Scheduler Design for Multiple Traffic Classes in OFDMA Networks 10 2.1 Proposed Schedulers 10 2.1.1 Scheduler Structures 12 2.1.2 MLWDF scheduler for Multiple Traffic Classes 13 2.1.3 Joint Scheduler 13 2.2 System Model 18 2.3 Performance Evaluation 19 2.3.1 Schedulers for Multiple Traffic Classes 20 2.3.2 Impact of Scheduler Selection Rule 25 2.3.3 Frame Based Schedulers 27 2.3.4 Impact of Partial Feedback 30 2.3.5 Adaptive Threshold Version Schedulers 33 2.4 Conclusion 36 Chapter 3 Frequency Reuse Policies for Fixed Relays in Cellular Networks 40 3.1 System Model 40 3.1.1 Frame Transmission and Frequency Reuse Patterns among RSs 42 3.1.2 Positioning of RSs and Channel Capacity 44 3.1.3 Area Spectral Efficiency 45 3.2 Radio Resource Management Policies Based on Frequency Reuse 46 3.2.1 Path Selection Rule 46 3.2.2 Frequency Reuse and Frame Transmission Pattern Matchings among Cells 52 3.3 Monte Carlo Simulation and Results 53 3.4 Consideration of Practical Issues 80 3.5 Conclusion 81 Chapter 4 Surveys of Further Works 83 4.1 Further Works on QoS Schedulers 83 4.1.1 WiMAX Schedulers 85 4.1.2 LTE Schedulers 92 4.2 Further Works on Radio Resource Management in Relay Systems 98 4.3 Future Challenges 100 Chapter 5 Conclusion 104 Bibliography 107 ์ดˆ๋ก 127Docto
