Cooperative Optimization for OFDMA Resource Allocation in Multi-RRH Millimeter-Wave CRAN

Abstract

Cloud radio access networks (CRAN) has become an excellent network architecture in the fifth-generation wireless communication systems, which can highly increase the capacity and coverage compared with conventional networks. However, in order to provide the best services, appropriate resource management must be applied. This paper considers transmission scheduling of downlink transmission in an OFDMA-based Millimeter-Wave (mmWave) CRAN, where data transmission on each subcarrier (SC) can be used by different remote radio heads (RRHs). A joint optimization problem of user association, SC allocation, RRH allocation and power allocation is formulated to maximize the weighted sum-rate. To efficiently solve this joint optimization problem, we first divide it into two subproblems: 1) joint optimization allocation of user, RRH and SC for fixed power allocation, 2) power allocation for fixed allocation of user, RRH and SC. We propose a novel algorithm to tackle the joint optimization problem by solving these two subproblems alternately. The simulated results indicate that the proposed multi-RRH cooperative algorithm can improve the transmission performance in terms of the weighted-sum rate and power efficiency. Moreover, the proposed algorithm has low computational complexity, which ensures the feasibility of the proposed scheduling algorithm in practical systems.

“…Users' fairness needs more attention and consideration. [133] Optimize User mobility needs to be considered. [136] Improve HetNet backhaul capacity…”

“…Furthermore, mmWave communications are more susceptible to blockages such as shadows and building walls and are also affected by atmospheric conditions compared to communications in low-frequency bands. In [133], the author identified transmission scheduling for downlink transmission OFDMA-based mmWave in HetNet. Specifically, a different SA can use the data rate on each subcarrier.…”

Energy Efficient Resource Allocation for Multinumerology Enabled Hybrid Services in B5G Wireless Mobile Networks

“…The authors of [15] optimize energy efficiency (EE) for versatile users under highspeed environments. However, system rate-latency performance cannot be simultaneously taken into account under plentiful types of services, which is confined by unavailability of different numerologies as in [9], [10], [13]- [15].…”

Energy efficient indoor localisation for narrowband internet of things

“…To meet the performance needs of giant machine-type communications in the Internet of Things and provide a pleasant service experience for Internet of Things users, mobile network ecological structure and resource management must be improved further [4][5][6][7][8]. A 3GPP-compliant cellular IoT technology, known as NB-IoT, is recognised as being essential for addressing the needs of the Internet of Things [6,[8][9][10]. With very low bandwidth, Narrow Band IoT is implemented in the cellular networks in-band, guard band, and independent carrier.…”
