Power-Efficient Radio Resource Allocation for Low-Medium -Altitude Aerial Platform Based TD-LTE Networks
In order to provide an increased capacity, throughput and QoS guarantee for terrestrial users in emergency scenarios, a low-medium-altitude aerial platform based time-division-duplex long term evolution (TD-LTE) system referred to as Aerial LTE, is presented in this paper. Additionally a power-efficient radio resource allocation mechanism is proposed for both the Aerial LTE downlink and uplink, which is modeled as a cooperative game. Our simulation results demonstrate that the proposed algorithm imposes an attractive tradeoff between the achievable throughput and the power consumption while ensuring fairness among users
A control theoretic approach to achieve proportional fairness in 802.11e EDCA WLANs
This paper considers proportional fairness amongst ACs in an EDCA WLAN for
provision of distinct QoS requirements and priority parameters. A detailed
theoretical analysis is provided to derive the optimal station attempt
probability which leads to a proportional fair allocation of station
throughputs. The desirable fairness can be achieved using a centralised
adaptive control approach. This approach is based on multivariable statespace
control theory and uses the Linear Quadratic Integral (LQI) controller to
periodically update CWmin till the optimal fair point of operation. Performance
evaluation demonstrates that the control approach has high accuracy performance
and fast convergence speed for general network scenarios. To our knowledge this
might be the first time that a closed-loop control system is designed for EDCA
WLANs to achieve proportional fairness
Radio resource allocation in relay based OFDMA cellular networks
PhDAdding relay stations (RS) between the base station (BS) and the mobile stations (MS) in a cellular system can extend network coverage, overcome multi-path fading and increase the capacity of the system.
This thesis considers the radio resource allocation scheme in relay based cellular networks to ensure high-speed and reliable communication. The goal of this research is to investigate user fairness, system throughput and power consumption in wireless relay networks through considering how best to manage the radio resource.
This thesis proposes a two-hop proportional fairness (THPF) scheduling scheme fair allocation, which is considered both in the first time subslot between direct link users and relay stations, and the second time subslot among relay link users.
A load based relay selection algorithm is also proposed for a fair resource allocation. The transmission mode (direct transmission mode or relay transmission mode) of each user will be adjusted based on the load of the transmission node.
Power allocation is very important for resource efficiency and system performance improvement and this thesis proposes a two-hop power allocation algorithm for energy efficiency, which adjusts the transmission power of the BS and RSs to make the data rate on the two hop links of one RS match each other.
The power allocation problem of multiple cells with inter-cell interference is studied. A new multi-cell power allocation scheme is proposed from non-cooperative game theory; this coordinates the inter-cell interference and operates in a distributed manner. The utility function can be designed for throughput improvement and user fairness respectively.
Finally, the proposed algorithms in this thesis are combined, and the system performance is evaluated. The joint radio resource allocation algorithm can achieve a very good tradeoff between throughput and user fairness, and also can significantly improve energy efficiency
