Mode selection and resource optimization for UAV-assisted cellular networks by Daquan FENG, Canjian ZHENG, Xiangqi KONG

“…The resource allocation and optimization scheme was studied in a coexistence scenario of unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) and cellular communication network.To improve spectrum efficiency of the system, UAV users could reuse the cellular spectrum resources to access the network through full duplex or half duplex device-to-device technique.Additionally, a joint access control, mode selection, power control and resource allocation optimization problem was formulated to maximize the overall throughput of the network while ensuring quality of service requirements for both UAV users and ground cellular users.Specifically, the phase 1 method in the convex optimization was adopted for access control and feasibility check, and then the convex and concave procedure (CCCP) iterative algorithm was used to solve the power control problem for feasible UAV user pairs.By using this local optimum value, the original optimization problem can be simplified into a weighted maximization problem.Finally, the Kuhn-Munkres (KM) algorithm was used to match the optimal channel resources and obtain the global optimal throughput value of the system.Numerical results show that the proposed scheme can significantly improve the performance of system.…”

Network slicing resource allocation strategy based on joint optimization by Zaijian WANG, Huimin GU

“…To improve network resource utilization that was decreased by different applications with different requirements in 5G networks, a network slicing resource allocation strategy based on joint optimization was proposed, which was utilized to maximize both network resource utilization and network revenue by comprehensively considering in tra-slice and inter-slice resource schedule.Firstly, the user’s average satisfaction function was defined in the inter-slicing resource allocation problem.Furthermore, in terms of the number of users, slicing schedule delay and priority, a proportional fair resource allocation algorithm based on quality of service (QoS) was proposed, which was employed to achieve the best tradeoff between fairness and the users’ requirements among slices.Secondly, after two functions (service degradation and resource migration) were introduced in the inter-slice resource schedule problem, two price models were established for internal access users and external access users respectively, where congestion and non-congestion conditions were analyzed.According to the proposed price models, a Stackelberg game between the base station and users was constructed, and a global search algorithm with low complexity was leveraged to obtain the best response of the game, where the best tradeoff between the base station revenue and user utility was obtained.Simulation results show that the proposed strategy can effectively improve resource utilization and network revenue while reducing network congestion.Therefore, it can better realize fairness in resource allocation.…”
