POWER ALLOCATION AND ADAPTIVE MODULATION STRATEGY FOR MIMO-OFDM SYSTEMS WITH IMPERFECT CSI

The presented scheme named M-CAP （Maximum CAPacity） uses the CSI （Channel State Information） and its statistics to deduce an equivalent channel according to which the transmit power is allocated to the subchannels. And then modulation scheme is determined adaptively according to the power allocated to each subchannel. The advantage of the M-CAP scheme is that it combines power allocation and adaptive modulation while maintaining a large capacity. We demonstrate by computer simulations that the proposed M-CAP scheme can significantly improve system performance compared with the traditional schemes.     

Subcarrier and power allocation algorithm based on inter-cell interference mitigation for OFDMA system

This article proposes a dynamic subcarrier and power allocation algorithm for multicell orthogonal frequency division multiple access (OFDMA) downlink system, based on inter-cell interference (ICI) mitigation. Different from other ICI mitigation schemes, which pay little attention to power allocation in the system, the proposed algorithm assigns channels to each user, based on proportional-fair (PF) scheduling and ICI coordination, whereas allocating power is based on link gain distribution and the loading bit based on adaptive modulation and coding (AMC) in base transceiver station (BTS). Simulation results show that the algorithm yields better performance for data services under fast fading.     

Power allocation of cooperative amplify-and-forward communications with multiple relays

Cooperative diversity is one of the most effective ways to mitigate the fading effect of wireless channels and obtain the spatial gain in wireless networks.In this paper,an optimal power allocation(OPA)scheme for a cooperative communication system using the amplify-and-forward(AF)transmit strategy with multiple relay users is proposed by minimizing the bit-error-rate(BER)at the destination under the constraint of the total transmit power of both the source user and the relay users.Simulation results indicate that the proposed power allocation method can achieve significant BER performance improvement than using the equal power allocation(EPA)scheme,while still attains low complexity.The system performance is improved significantly with the increasing of the number of relay users at high signal-noise ratio(SNR).However,at low SNR,the system performance decreases when the relay number increases.Thus,an adaptive relay selection scheme may be used to choose the appropriate relay numbers in different transmission scenarios to provide system performance improvement and keep the power allocation scheme with low complexity.     

Downlink CoMP Resource Allocation Based on Limited Backhaul Capacity

Coordinated Multi-Point(CoMP) transmission is put forward in the Long Term Evolution-Advanced(LTE-A) system to improve both average and cell-edge throughput. In this paper, downlink CoMP(DL-CoMP) resource allocation scheme based on limited backhaul capacity is designed to take a tradeoff between system throughput and fairness. Resource allocation of proportional fairness based on querying table is proposed. It updates RB allocation matrix when center cell has completed resource allocation and delivers the matrix to adjacent cells for their own RB allocation. Furthermore, Water-Filling algorithm based on adaptive water level(AWF) is used for power allocation to boost system fairness. In this paper, performance of downlink CoMP based on limited backhaul capacity and single-point transmission is contrasted, and results indicate that CoMP dramatically enhances system throughput and spectral efficiency. Moreover, AWF power allocation scheme obtains higher system fairness than conventional Water-Filling(WF) algorithm, although it gets slightly lower system throughput. Finally, this paper discussed that the system performance is partially affected by the percentage of CoMP resource.

Simulation results show that the TPCG algorithm can regulate their transmitter powers and enhance the total throughput effectively, M-TPCG algorithm can achieve maximal system throughput. The performance of the cognitive radio system is improved obviously.     

Dynamic subcarrier and power allocation based on cooperative game theory in symmetric cooperative OFDMA networks

In order to improve the efficiency and fairness of radio resource utilization,a scheme of dynamic cooperative subcarrier and power allocation based on Nash bargaining solution(NBS-DCSPA) is proposed in the uplink of a three-node symmetric cooperative orthogonal frequency division multiple access(OFDMA) system.In the proposed NBS-DCSPA scheme,resource allocation problem is formulated as a two-person subcarrier and power allocation bargaining game(SPABG) to maximize the system utility,under the constraints of each user’s maximal power and minimal rate,while considering the fairness between the two users.Firstly,the equivalent direct channel gain of the relay link is introduced to decide the transmission mode of each subcarrier.Then,all subcarriers can be dynamically allocated to the two users in terms of their selected transmission mode.After that,the adaptive power allocation scheme combined with dynamic subcarrier allocation is optimized according to NBS.Finally,computer simulation is conducted to show the efficiency and fairness performance of the proposed NBS-DCSPA scheme.     

Decentralized beamforming design and power allocation for limited coordinated multi-cell network

Multi-cell processing （MCP） is capable of providing significant performance gain, but this improvement is accompanied by dramatic signaling overhead between cooperative base stations. Therefore, balancing the performance gain and overhead growth is crucial for a practical multi-base cooperation scheme. In this paper, we propose a decentralized algorithm to jointly optimize the power allocation and beamforming vector with the goal of maximizing the system performance under the constraint of limited overhead signal and backhaul link capacity. In particular, combined with calculating the transmission beamforming vector according to the local channel state information, an adaptive power allocation is presented based on the result of sum capacity estimation. Furthermore, by utilizing the concept of cell clustering, the proposed framework can be implemented in a practical cellular system without major modification of network architecture. Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed scheme improves the system performance in terms of the sum capacity and cell-edge capacity.     

Joint Optimization of Subchannel Reassignment and Power Adaptation for Multicarrier Cooperative Systems

An amplify-and-forward multicarrier cooperative system was proposed in this paper. The optimal resource-allocation problem was investigated in terms of improving data rate. An effective resource-allocation algorithm was proposed based on three techniques, adaptive modulation, subchannel reassignment design and transmit power adaptation. The designed subchannel reassignment not only increases the average data rate, but also raises the threshold of ＂water-filling＂ in optimizing power allocation that can further increase data rate. Since the power allocation is based on the designed subchannel reassignment, the complexity of the proposed algorithm is reduced greatly. Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm effectively increases the system＇s average data rate.     

Multiuser subcarriers and bit allocation combining adaptive mapping for SC-FDMA system

In this article, a multiuser single carrier frequency division multiple access （SC-FDMA） system is considered, based on which an adaptive subcarrier and bit allocation algorithm is investigated. The algorithm has been used to achieve a subcarrier mapping mode in this system, which combines the advantages of single- and multi-carrier transmissions, such as, low peak to average power ratio, orthogonality of signals of different users, and low complexity. Simulation results show that it has a similar performance as that of the adaptive allocation algorithm in the orthogonal frequency division multiple （OFDM） system and the proposed mapping mode has a performance gain over the two existing mapping modes at the link level.     

OFDMA中继网络动态节能子载波、比特和功率联合分配策略(英文)

To reduce energy consumption while maintaining users’ Quality of Service (QoS) in Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplex Access (OFDMA) relay-enhanced networks, an adaptive energy saving subcarrier, bit and power allocation scheme is presented. The optimal subcarrier, bit and power allocation problems based on discrete adaptive modulation and coding scheme have been previously formulated for relay-enhanced networks, and have been reformulated into and solved by integer programming in optimization theory. If the system still has a surplus of subcarriers after resource allocation, we carry out Band- width Exchange (BE) to enable more subcarriers to participate in transmission to save energy. In addition, as the relay selection scheme is closely linked with resource allocation, a heuristic energy saving relay selection scheme is proposed. Simulation results indicate that the proposed algorithm consumes less energy when transmitting the same number of bits than greedy energy saving schemes, although its spectrum efficiency is worse.

Dynamic resource allocation with beamforming for MIMO OFDM systems: performance and effects of imperfect CSI

We propose three different dynamic resource allocation algorithms using adaptive beamforming for multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) OFDM systems, and investigate their performance over multipath fading channels under perfect and imperfect channel state information (CSI). These approaches involve the use of adaptive modulation, adaptive frequency-domain power allocation, and/or adaptive sub-channel allocation. By employing the proposed approaches in MIMO/OFDM systems, significant performance improvement can be achieved compared to the conventional adaptive antenna array based OFDM. The investigation of the effects of imperfect CSI reveals that the adaptive-modulation based approach is too sensitive to channel estimation errors, and that its performance is worse than the adaptive frequency-domain power allocation and/or adaptive sub-channel allocation approaches. The performance analysis also shows that combining adaptive power allocation with sub-channel allocation yields the best performance under imperfect CSI while being robust to channel estimation errors.
