Power Optimal Opportunistic Scheduling in Fading Wireless Channel
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper, we propose a power optimal opportunistic scheduling scheme for a multiuser single hop Time Division Multiple Access (TDMA) system. We formulate the problem of minimizing average transmission power subject to minimum rate constraints for individual users. We suggest a stochastic approximation based scheme to implement the policy and prove the convergence and stability of this algorithm. We demonstrate through simulations that the algorithm converges to optimal policy in reasonable iterations for it to be practically useful. Our algorithm is applicable for independent and identically distributed (i.i.d.) as well as Markovian channel fading. Finally, we extend the power optimal scheduling algorithm for providing temporal fairness among users.

Efficient Distributed Channel Probing for Opportunistic Scheduling Over Wireless Fading Channels
It is energy-consuming and operationally cumbersome for all users to continuously estimate the channel quality before each transmission decision in opportunistic scheduling over wireless fading channels. This observation motivates us to understand whether and how opportunistic gains can still be achieved with significant reductions in channel probing requirements and without centralized coordin...
متن کاملThe Mean SIR of Large-Scale Wireless Networks: Its Closed-Form Expression and Main Applications
In a large-scale wireless ad hoc network in which all transmitters form a homogeneous of Poisson point process, the statistics of the signal-to-interference ratio (SIR) in prior work is only derived in closed-form for the case of Rayleigh fading channels. In this letter, the mean SIR is found in closed-form for general random channel (power) gain, transmission distance and power control models....
متن کاملOpportunistic Scheduling Using Channel Memory in Markov-modeled Wireless Networks
The presence of multiple users in a network provides us with a valuable resource known as multiuser diversity. With information on the instantaneous states of the channels, multiuser diversity can be tapped by opportunistic multiuser scheduling. It is important that the channel state information is acquired in a cost-effective way so that the losses involved in this operation does not offset th...

متن کاملOpportunistic Communication: A System View
The wireless medium is often called a fading channel: the pejorative adjective suggests that the intrinsic temporal and frequency variations are an impediment to reliable communication. While not untrue, the channel fluctuations are turned from foe to friend in some scenarios. A concrete situation is when the time scale of communication is much larger than that of the channel fluctuations: the ...
