Downlink Scheduling Schemes for CDMA Networks with Adaptive Modulation and Coding and Multicodes

Abstract

For the problem of allocating radio resources in the downlink of a CDMA network studied in [1], the modulation and coding schemes, numbers of multicodes, and transmit powers used for all mobile stations (MS's) are jointly chosen so as to maximize the total transmission bit rate during each scheduling interval, subject to certain constraints. The approach employs discrete mathematical programming, which is potentially complex, and analytical solutions are not available. In this paper, sub-optimal approaches are examined. In particular, analytical expressions are derived for optimal resource allocation involving a single MS. Based on the single-MS solution, a sub-optimal, sequential optimization procedure for multiple MS's is presented. Numerical results show that when the order for allocating resources to MS's is judiciously chosen based on the MS channel conditions and/or traffic loads, the sequential solution is an attractive alternative to the more complex joint optimization. This is especially true when radio resources are scarce.Index Terms-Adaptive modulation and coding, CDMA, downlink scheduling, high-speed packet data, multicode.

Facile Amplification of Solution-State Surface-Enhanced Raman Scattering of Small Molecules Using Spontaneously Formed 3D Nanoplasmonic Wells

“…Also, a measurement of SERS signals from a low-concentration sample solution without surface adsorption of the analytes also remains a challenge, owing to molecular convection induced by laser illumination. 38 To overcome these limitations, many attempts have been made. 8,17,[19][20][21][22][23]25 For example, physical concentration methods were developed in which analyte solutions are confined to a designated volume using a bottleneck effect at micro-and nanofluidic junctions 17,20 as well as electrokinetic assemblies in microfluidic wells.…”

A novel algorithm for link adaptation using fuzzy rule based system for wideband networking waveform of SDR

“…The solution is optimal and potentially complex. A sub-optimal approach of deriving the expressions for optimal resource allocation based on single user is proposed in [15]. The single user solution is then extended to form a sub-optimal sequential optimization procedure for multiple users.…”
