As a result of the significant increase of overlapped coverage areas among base stations (BSs), interference coordination in heterogeneous cellular networks (HetCNets) becomes necessary, since interference would degrade network performance and even cause dropped calls. In addition, various types of BSs coexist in HetCNets, and BSs with low power (such as Pico BSs and Femto BSs) are deployed more arbitrarily...
Resource allocation in the context of OFDMA-based systems is challenging, given a combinatorial nature of the problem. In the context of IEEE 802.16 systems this problem is further exacerbated by additional constraints that are faced with its two dimensional frame nature. The main challenges associated with resource allocation in these systems are: mapping the allocated bandwidth resources to users...
We investigate an outage optimal adaptive resource allocation scheme for the upstream of two-hop OFDMA based decode-and-forward cooperative relay systems. The objective of this work is to design resource allocation strategy, which addresses the needs of the users minimizing their outage probability. This scheme utilizes the subchannel-pairing and proportional fairness in two-hop multiuser multirelay...
The problem of resource allocation in multiuser OFDM system is a combinatorial optimization problem, difficult to solve in polynomial time. For the sake of reducing complexity, it can be solved either by relaxing constraints and making use of linear algorithms or by metaheuristic methods. In this paper, ant colony optimization, a typical algorithm of metaheuristic methods, is applied to solve the...
This paper presents a mathematical modeling framework for studying the capacity of multi-cell orthogonal frequency division multiplexing networks in single- and multi-service scenarios with various quality of service (QoS) constraints. The framework is built around a feasible network load concept which relates cell resource utilization and interference-dependent resource demand generated by traffic...
Spectral efficiency, fairness and user satisfaction are crucial aspects for resource allocation in multi-user Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM)-based cellular networks. Classical Radio Resource Allocation (RRA) strategies, such as Max-Rate (MR), Proportional Fairness (PF) and Max- Min Fairness (MMF), show different performances regarding the three aforementioned aspects. In this work,...
