“…The DSM spectrum optimization problem corresponds to a challenging nonconvex problem, for which many DSM algorithms have been proposed in the literature, ranging from fully autonomous [1], [2], [3], and distributed [2], [4], [5], [6], to centralized algorithms [7], [8]. In particular, the approach of iterative convex approximation (ICA) has been recognized to be very efficient, such as the CA-DSB [2] and SCALE [5] algorithms.…”
