Coordinated Scheduling Algorithm for System Utility Maximization With Heterogeneous QoS Requirements in Wireless Relay Networks
Yupeng Wang, Xin Su, Dongmin Choi, Chang Choi · IEEE Access · 2016
In this paper, we focus on the radio resource management (RRM) issues in the two-hop Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiple Access (OFDMA) system with heterogeneous quality of service (QoS) requirements. To solve the RRM problem, we first propose a new two-hop frame structure to support the data relay operation from the base station to the relay station and cooperative transmission for the edge users. Then, a two-hop coordinated scheduling algorithm is proposed, which utilizes the proposed two-hop frame structure and considers the corresponding interference status. The proposed two-hop coordinated scheduling algorithm solves the RRM problem of the two-hop OFDMA system with heterogeneous QoS requirements in an iterative manner, and so maximizes the system utility.
