Efficiency Resource Allocation for Device-to-Device Underlay Communication Systems: A Reverse Iterative Combinatorial Auction Based Approach
Peer-to-peer communication has been recently considered as a popular issue
for local area services. An innovative resource allocation scheme is proposed
to improve the performance of mobile peer-to-peer, i.e., device-to-device
(D2D), communications as an underlay in the downlink (DL) cellular networks. To
optimize the system sum rate over the resource sharing of both D2D and cellular
modes, we introduce a reverse iterative combinatorial auction as the allocation
mechanism. In the auction, all the spectrum resources are considered as a set
of resource units, which as bidders compete to obtain business while the
packages of the D2D pairs are auctioned off as goods in each auction round. We
first formulate the valuation of each resource unit, as a basis of the proposed
auction. And then a detailed non-monotonic descending price auction algorithm
is explained depending on the utility function that accounts for the channel
gain from D2D and the costs for the system. Further, we prove that the proposed
auction-based scheme is cheat-proof, and converges in a finite number of
iteration rounds. We explain non-monotonicity in the price update process and
show lower complexity compared to a traditional combinatorial allocation. The
simulation results demonstrate that the algorithm efficiently leads to a good
performance on the system sum rate.Comment: 26 pages, 6 fgures; IEEE Journals on Selected Areas in

Energy-Efficient Resource Allocation for Device-to-Device Underlay Communication
Device-to-device (D2D) communication underlaying cellular networks is
expected to bring significant benefits for utilizing resources, improving user
throughput and extending battery life of user equipments. However, the
allocation of radio and power resources to D2D communication needs elaborate
coordination, as D2D communication can cause interference to cellular
communication. In this paper, we study joint channel and power allocation to
improve the energy efficiency of user equipments. To solve the problem
efficiently, we introduce an iterative combinatorial auction algorithm, where
the D2D users are considered as bidders that compete for channel resources, and
the cellular network is treated as the auctioneer. We also analyze important
properties of D2D underlay communication, and present numerical simulations to
verify the proposed algorithm.Comment: IEEE Transactions on Wireless Communication
A Game-Theoretic Approach to Energy-Efficient Resource Allocation in Device-to-Device Underlay Communications
Despite the numerous benefits brought by Device-to-Device (D2D)
communications, the introduction of D2D into cellular networks poses many new
challenges in the resource allocation design due to the co-channel interference
caused by spectrum reuse and limited battery life of User Equipments (UEs).
Most of the previous studies mainly focus on how to maximize the Spectral
Efficiency (SE) and ignore the energy consumption of UEs. In this paper, we
study how to maximize each UE's Energy Efficiency (EE) in an
interference-limited environment subject to its specific Quality of Service
(QoS) and maximum transmission power constraints. We model the resource
allocation problem as a noncooperative game, in which each player is
self-interested and wants to maximize its own EE. A distributed
interference-aware energy-efficient resource allocation algorithm is proposed
by exploiting the properties of the nonlinear fractional programming. We prove
that the optimum solution obtained by the proposed algorithm is the Nash
equilibrium of the noncooperative game. We also analyze the tradeoff between EE
and SE and derive closed-form expressions for EE and SE gaps.Comment: submitted to IET Communications. arXiv admin note: substantial text

Optimal time sharing in underlay cognitive radio systems with RF energy harvesting
Due to the fundamental tradeoffs, achieving spectrum efficiency and energy
efficiency are two contending design challenges for the future wireless
networks. However, applying radio-frequency (RF) energy harvesting (EH) in a
cognitive radio system could potentially circumvent this tradeoff, resulting in
a secondary system with limitless power supply and meaningful achievable
information rates. This paper proposes an online solution for the optimal time
allocation (time sharing) between the EH phase and the information transmission
(IT) phase in an underlay cognitive radio system, which harvests the RF energy
originating from the primary system. The proposed online solution maximizes the
average achievable rate of the cognitive radio system, subject to the
-percentile protection criteria for the primary system. The
optimal time sharing achieves significant gains compared to equal time
allocation between the EH and IT phases.Comment: Proceedings of the 2015 IEEE International Conference on
