Distributed Resource Allocation for Device-to-Device Communication in LTE/LTE-A Networks

2015

Masteroppgave informasjons- og kommunikasjonsteknologi - Universitetet i Agder, 2015 Currently, 3GPP is working on device-to-device (D2D) communica- tions, which is regarded as a part of 5G mobile communication systems. This thesis focuses on allocation of radio resources, based on a scenario where out-of-coverage user equipments (UEs) communicate with a base station (BS), through an user equipment relay (UE-R) located within the cell coverage. Two algorithms have been developed, one focusing on adjusting di erent parameters to achieve higher performance in the de- veloped system. Whilst the other algorithm targets at battery depended resource allocation including four battery control alloc…
