Multiuser OFDM with adaptive subcarrier, bit, and power allocation

Multiuser orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) with adaptive multiuser subcarrier allocation and adaptive modulation is considered. Assuming knowledge of the instantaneous channel gains for all users, we propose a multiuser OFDM subcarrier, bit, and power allocation algorithm to minimize the total transmit power. This is done by assigning each user a set of subcarriers and by determining the number of bits and the transmit power level for each subcarrier. We obtain the performance of our proposed algorithm in a multiuser frequency selective fading environment for various time delay spread values and various numbers of users. The results show that our proposed algorithm outperforms multiuser OFDM systems with static time-division multiple access (TDMA) or frequency-division multiple access (FDMA) techniques which employ fixed and predetermined time-slot or subcarrier allocation schemes. We have also quantified the improvement in terms of the overall required transmit power, the bit-error rate (BER), or the area of coverage for a given outage probability     

A Low Complexity Resource Allocation Method for OFDMA System Based on Channel Gain

In orthogonal frequency division with multiple access (OFDMA) systems dynamic radio resource allocation improves overall performance by exploiting the multiuser diversity gains. A key issue in OFDMA is the allocation of the OFDM subcarriers and power among users sharing the channel. This paper proposes a new rate adaptive resource allocation scheme in the OFDMA downlink transmission system. Our proposed algorithm is based on the users’ sensitivity to the subcarrier allocation which means how frequency selective is the channel from the user’s perspective. As a result of frequency selectivity of the channel, different subchannels of the same user experience different levels of fade. However, how different they undergo fading could be measured by difference between maximum and minimum channel gain of that user. Our proposed method is based on difference between maximum channel gain and minimum channel gain for each user and uniform distribution of power among subcarriers. Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm achieves higher capacity over fixed TDMA method, and reported suboptimal methods with acceptable rate proportionality.     

Transmit power adaptation for multiuser OFDM systems

In this paper, we develop a transmit power adaptation method that maximizes the total data rate of multiuser orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) systems in a downlink transmission. We generally formulate the data rate maximization problem by allowing that a subcarrier could be shared by multiple users. The transmit power adaptation scheme is derived by solving the maximization problem via two steps: subcarrier assignment for users and power allocation for subcarriers. We have found that the data rate of a multiuser OFDM system is maximized when each subcarrier is assigned to only one user with the best channel gain for that subcarrier and the transmit power is distributed over the subcarriers by the water-filling policy. In order to reduce the computational complexity in calculating water-filling level in the proposed transmit power adaptation method, we also propose a simple method where users with the best channel gain for each subcarrier are selected and then the transmit power is equally distributed among the subcarriers. Results show that the total data rate for the proposed transmit power adaptation methods significantly increases with the number of users owing to the multiuser diversity effects and is greater than that for the conventional frequency-division multiple access (FDMA)-like transmit power adaptation schemes. Furthermore, we have found that the total data rate of the multiuser OFDM system with the proposed transmit power adaptation methods becomes even higher than the capacity of the AWGN channel when the number of users is large enough.     

New adaptive bit allocation algorithms for multiuser OFDM/CDMA systems

An adaptive bit allocation algorithm is proposed for multiuser transmission in OFDM/CDMA systems. The proposed scheme takes advantage of frequency diversity to dynamically allocate a suitable number of bits/per symbol on subcarriers of each user based on the transmitting objectives such as the required transmission rate and BER. A suboptimal solution to the problem of the bit allocation on subcarriers for each user is derived by minimizing the interference power from each user. Then an algorithm for adjusting the number of allocated bits is used to further reduce the interference without changing the total transmitted data rate. The performance obtained by minimizing the interference resulting from each user is studied in terms of BER, transmission data rate and the system capacity supporting multiple users. The theoretical analysis and simulation results show that the proposed algorithm substantially outperforms those reported previously.     

Adaptive Subcarrier and Power Allocation with Fairness for Multi-user Space-Time Block-Coded OFDM System

This paper investigates the subcarrier and power allocation problems of multi-user space-time block coded OFDM based cellular systems. Based on the tradeoff between the number of assigned subcarriers and the amount of allocated power for users, a less complexity algorithm that separates subcarrier allocation and power allocation is proposed. Simulation results show that the proposed resource allocation algorithm can improve the capacity significantly compared with static FDMA fixed allocation algorithm and the MIMO-OFDMA scheme, and the more important thing is that it can make the capacity be distributed more fairly, very close to the ideal rate constraints, among users than the scheme which maximizes the system capacity only.     

Rate adaptive resource allocation for OFDM downlink transmission

In this paper, we present a multiuser rate adaptive resource allocation for OFDM downlink transmission.

Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm achieves a higher capacity than previous existing algorithms and distributed the overall capacity more fairly among users.

Proportional-fair power allocation with CDF-based scheduling for fair and efficient multiuser OFDM systems

In this paper we investigate adaptive resource allocation schemes in multiuser OFDM systems for fair share of resources and efficient operation. We employ the CDF-based scheduling (CS) algorithm for the subcarrier allocation, taking advantage of its distinctive feature of analyzability and multiuser diversity. Noting that conventional power allocation schemes do not exhibit efficient and fair operations in heterogeneous user channel environment, we present a new algorithm called proportional-fair power allocation (PFPA). This algorithm is designed to allocate transmission power in such a way that the resulting relative throughput-increment is identical for all subcarriers. The PFPA algorithm is shown to be equivalent to the power allocation of the asymptotically optimal algorithm, which exhibits the largest achievable region in the asymptotic case. Numerical results reveal that the combined CS-PFPA algorithm improves the overall system capacity in terms of time-average throughput and provides efficient estimation of user performances. Further, the CS-PFPA algorithm can meet each user's requirements using a minimum amount of resources, so it renders an efficient and fair means for resource allocation in multiuser OFDM systems.     

An Efficient Adaptive Modulation Scheme for Wireless OFDM Systems

An adaptive modulation scheme is presented for multiuser orthogonal frequency‐division multiplexing systems. The aim of the scheme is to minimize the total transmit power with a constraint on the transmission rate for users, assuming knowledge of the instantaneous channel gains for all users using a combined bit‐loading and subcarrier allocation algorithm. The subcarrier allocation algorithm identifies the appropriate assignment of subcarriers to the users, while the bit‐loading algorithm determines the number of bits given to each subcarrier. The proposed bit‐loading algorithm is derived from the geometric progression of the additional transmission power required by the subcarriers and the arithmetic‐geometric means inequality. This algorithm has a simple procedure and low computational complexity. A heuristic approach is also used for the subcarrier allocation algorithm, providing a trade‐off between complexity and performance. Numerical results demonstrate that the proposed algorithms provide comparable performance with existing algorithms with low computational cost.
