Full duplex communication allows a user to transmit and receive data at the same time, and it has been seen as a promising technique to increase the efficiency and throughput of wireless networks. This, in turn, causes new kinds of problems like self-interference and intra-post interference, causing unfairness to other users. In this paper, we present an optimized user scheduling method for full-duplex communications in wireless networks to address these issues and further improve system throughputs. The schematic of our schedule adjusts the time and frequency for flexibility to obtain suitable resource appointments along with channel conditions and user traffic demand. We also conduct simulations to show that the proposed scheme significantly improves system throughput and fairness over existing scheduling schemes. The proposed scheme will also decrease the self-interference level and enhance the robustness of interference to neighboring networks. The main takeaway from our scheme is to realize the full potential of FD communication in wireless networks, hence providing a more reliable and efficient network for users.
