“…As a result, mmWave mainly relies on lineof-sight (LOS) transmission which makes high path loss, atmospheric absorption, high noise power and sensitivity typical challenges of mmWave communication. These factors impair its signals and thus lead to inadequate network coverage [183]- [185]. Note that although mmWave helps to 'achieve' a lower interference due to directionality, there would be degradation in the desired signal quality due to blockage [183].…”

Device-to-Device (D2D) communication is one of the enabling technologies for meeting the capacity requirements of the fifth-generation wireless systems (5G). It has diverse applications in traffic offloading, disaster management and content sharing, to mention a few. The network coverage and capacity further improve when relays are introduced to D2D communication. However, the interference becomes more severe since these devices also share resources with the traditional cellular users in the underlay. To take the benefits and avert the drawbacks of this spectrum sharing scenario, analytical tools capable of revealing the mathematical relationships among pertinent network design parameters are needed. This brings stochastic geometry (SG) into the picture. With SG-based analyses, designers can model concepts to understand, provide insights, and address the problems of spectrum sharing in relay-assisted D2D communication. Some of the key metrics of particular interest to network designers are the transmission capacity and spectral efficiency of D2D communication, as they reveal the performance gains and quantify the level of interference within the network. These enable them to properly correlate relevant cause-and-effect relationships before wealth and time are invested in network implementation. Despite the studies on the analysis of relay-assisted D2D underlay cellular networks using SG in recent years, there is no available survey material where researchers can find models, assumptions, key results and derived lessons to further comprehend this area and open up new research lines. This motivates the presentation of this paper which in addition to the aforementioned, gives elaborate discussions on promising areas for future research with respect to the recent advancements in D2D communication and SG research.

Motivated by increasing popularity of delaysensitive applications, we investigate the queue stability in device-to-device (D2D) relay-assisted cellular networks. In contrast to prior works on D2D relay-assisted cellular networks, we incorporate practical properties of these networks such as bursty packet arrivals, user mobility and relays generating their own traffic. Assuming network topology evolving in IID fashion, we first evaluate the system stability region to quantify its delay performance. Subsequently, we formulate a policy for joint resource allocation and power control under a more realistic mobility scenario of generalized reflected random walk. Also, the throughput optimality of this policy is investigated. Simulation results are provided to give better understanding of queue stability in the network.
