Generation of Innovative and Sparse Encoding Vectors for Broadcast Systems with Feedback
In the application of linear network coding to wireless broadcasting with
feedback, we prove that the problem of determining the existence of an
innovative encoding vector is NP-complete when the finite field size is two.
When the finite field size is larger than or equal to the number of users, it
is shown that we can always find an encoding vector which is both innovative
and sparse. The sparsity can be utilized in speeding up the decoding process.
An efficient algorithm to generate innovative and sparse encoding vectors is
developed. Simulations show that the delay performance of our scheme with
binary finite field outperforms a number of existing schemes in terms of
average and worst-case delay.Comment: 5 pages, 4 figures, accepted for publication in the Proc. of IEEE

Distributed Enhanced Inter-Cell Interference Coordination (eICIC) in LTE-Advanced HetNets: A Potential Game Approach
International audienceIn this paper we propose a distributed algorithm for jointly optimizing almost blank subframe (ABS) and cell selection bias (CSB) patterns in Long Term Evolution-Advanced (LTE-A) heterogeneous networks (HetNets). We formulate the optimization problem as an exact potential game, where a Nash equilibrium point is guaranteed to be achieved within finite number of plays. Through simulations, we are able to demonstrate the fast convergence of the algorithm, an increase in average user rate, and a tremendous improvement on the service fairness of the users
Joint Optimization on Inter-cell Interference Management and User Attachment in LTE-A HetNets
International audienceTo optimize the network utility in 3GPP Long Term Evolution-Advanced (LTE-A) heterogeneous networks (HetNets), it is necessary to jointly consider inter-cell interference mitigation and user attachment. Based on potential game formulation, we optimize almost blank subframe (ABS) and/or cell selection bias (CSB) settings for both macrocells and picocells in a distributed manner. We demonstrate the need of joint ABS and CSB optimization via simulation case studies. Extensive simulations confirm that joint ABS and CSB optimizations can lead to a 20% improvement in spectral efficiency and a 46% improvement in energy efficiency while increasing the fairness of the achieved rates of users
