A Categorized Resource Sharing Mechanism for Device-to-Device Communications in Cellular Networks

الملخص EN

Device-to-Device (D2D) communications are considered one of the key technologies for 5G wireless communication systems.

In this paper, a resource sharing mechanism, which applies different policies for different cases (thus being categorized), is proposed.

In this scheme, all D2D pairs are divided into three groups by comparing the minimum transmit power with the maximum transmit power of each cellular UE.

The proposed mechanism enables multiple D2D pairs in the second group to share the resource with cellular user equipment (UE) simultaneously, by adjusting the transmit powers of these D2D transmitters.

At the same time, D2D pairs in the first group and the third group share resource with cellular UE based on the transmit power minimization principle.

Simulation results show that the proposed scheme can achieve relatively higher network throughput and lower transmit power consumption of the D2D system.
