This paper considers the problem of uplink scheduling in wireless networks supporting successive interference cancellation (SIC) at the physical layer. By allowing concurrent interfering transmissions, SIC enables multi-packet reception at the receiver resulting in increased network throughput. Specifically, we consider maximum throughput scheduling and proportional fair scheduling problems and study...
Uplink scheduling in a multicell OFDMA system is considered. A non-collaborative intercell interference avoidance method is proposed, where base stations shut down certain subcarriers in a probabilistic manner based on the received interference level. Proportional fair scheduling is implemented in order to ensure fairness for cell edge users. A low complexity scheduling algorithm is proposed for this...
We consider the problem of maximizing the weighted sum data rate in multi-cell and multi-carrier wireless data systems in the presence of interference. We present a scheme that jointly considers load balancing, user scheduling, and interference mitigation to improve the system performance. Our proposed scheme iteratively applies two processes. The first process solves the sub-problem of load balancing...
LTE-Advanced system which based on orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) can eliminate intra-cell interference but still can not mitigate inter-cell interference (ICI). Coordinated Multi-Point transmission/reception (CoMP) is one of the candidate techniques for LTE-Advanced systems to increase the cell average and cell edge user throughput in the both uplink and downlink. Although CoMP...
In this paper we propose a heuristic inter-cell coordination scheme for scheduling users in an opportunistic multi-cell network. The scheme is mainly designed to be implemented in the uplink of networks that utilize the third generation partnership project long term evolution (3GPP LTE) technology. The objective of the scheme is to coordinate the uplink transmission in neighboring cells such that...
Recently, wireless multimedia services have been growing because of the spread of various wireless applications. Hence, time division duplex (TDD) systems and their crossed-slot interference problems in a cellular environment have been attracting growing interests. Considering large signaling overhead between cells, decentralized time slot allocation (TSA) strategy is suitable for practical implementation...
Wireless mesh networks (WMNs) are an emerging technology which provides broadband wireless access services. One of the challenges that still faces high performance WMNs is the capacity reduction due to interference of wireless links. In this paper, we address the problem of assigning channels to nodes in WMNs. For this, we introduce the cluster channel assignment (CCA) approach with the objective...
This paper analyzes the problem of decoding order and rate allocation in DS-CDMA cellular systems using successive interference cancellation (SIC) technology. Two different constraints, i.e. the maximum transmission power of users and the system throughput, are considered respectively. When the maximum transmission power of users is limited, this paper first proposes a theorem to assert whether or...
