Title: Resource Allocation Optimization for Device-to-Device Communication Underlaying Cellular Networks
Abstract: Device-to-Device (D2D) communication will become an important technology in future networks with the increase of the requirements of local communication services. The interference between cellular communication and D2D communication can be coordinated by proper power control and resource allocation. In this paper, we analyze the resource allocation methods for D2D communication underlaying cellular networks. A novel resource allocation method that D2D can reuse the resources of more than one cellular user is proposed. After that, we discuss the selection of the optimal resource allocation method from the proposed method and the conventional methods. Finally, the performance of different methods is evaluated through numerical simulation. The simulation results show that the proposed method is the optimal resource allocation method when the D2D pair locates at the most part of the cell area in both uplink and downlink. The proposed method can improve the sum throughput of cellular communication and D2D communication significantly.
