Optimal multi-objective resource allocation for D2D underlaying cellular networks in uplink communications

In this paper, we study a resource allocation problem in orthogonal frequency division multiple access (OFDMA)-based Device-to-Device (D2D) communications. To this end, we propose a multi-objective optimization problem (MOOP) framework, which jointly …

Antenna selection and resource allocation in downlink MISO OFDMA femtocell networks

In this paper, the problem of joint sub-channel assignment, antenna selection, and power control in the downlink (DL) of an orthogonal frequency division multiple access (OFDMA) femtocell network is investigated in order to maximize system …

Modified SNR gap approximation for resource allocation in LDPC-coded multicarrier systems

The signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) gap approximation provides a closed-form expression for the SNR required for a coded modulation system to achieve a given target error performance for a given constellation size. This approximation has been widely used …

A novel performance tradeoff in heterogeneous networks : a multi-objective approach

In this letter, we investigate the performance tradeoff between different tiers of heterogeneous networks (HetNets) consisting of a macrocell as the basic tier and small cells (e.g., picocells, femtocells, etc.) as the other tiers. Due to the …
