MIMO Link Scheduling for Interference Cancellation in Dense Wireless Networks

چکیده
This paper addresses the problem of fair scheduling of MIMO links in dense wireless network deployments where MIMO interference cancellation is carried out to optimize network performance. We formulate and solve an optimal MIMO link scheduling problem, where the goal is to maximize aggregate throughput while meeting a specified fairness criterion. Evaluations in a modified version of ns-3 show that our time-fair MIMO link scheduling approach can achieve more than double the performance of 802.11n, while simultaneously achieving a fairness index of 90–95%.

Distributed MIMO Interference Cancellation for Interfering Wireless Networks: Protocol and Initial Simulation
In this report, the problem of interference in dense wireless network deployments is addressed. Two example scenarios are: 1) overlapping basic service sets (OBSSes) in wireless LAN deployments, and 2) interference among close-by femtocells. The proposed approach is to exploit the interference cancellation and spatial multiplexing capabilities of multiple-input multipleoutput (MIMO) links to mi...
متن کاملA General Model for DoF-based Interference Cancellation in MIMO Networks with Rank-deficient Channels
In recent years, degree-of-freedom (DoF) based models were proven to be very successful in studying MIMObased wireless networks. However, most of these studies assume channel matrix is of full-rank. Such assumption, although attractive, quickly becomes problematic as the number of antennas increases and propagation environment is not close to ideal. In this paper, we address this problem by dev...

متن کاملExploiting Spatial Reuse in Multi-hop MIMO Networks: Models, Algorithms, and Evaluation
MIMO has great potential for enhancing the throughput of multi-hop wireless networks via spatial multiplexing or spatial reuse techniques. Spatial reuse outperforms spatial multiplexing in terms of potential network throughput and is effective in a wider range of wireless contexts than spatial multiplexing. The network throughput when previous approaches of spatial reuse are employed, however, ...
متن کاملContext-aware Greedy Scheduling Algorithm in Wireless Network
In order to measure the link’s interference in static heterogeneous wireless networks, we need to know its context information, but the context information can not be informed before the link allocates the time slot. Because of the highly inadequate collection and the use of traditional scheduling algorithms for link interference information, which severely limits their performance, this paper ...
