The study investigated the allocation of transmission power and bits for a point-to-point orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing channel assuming perfect channel information at the receiver, but imperfect channel information at the transmitter. Channel information was quantized at the receiver and was sent back to the transmitter via a finite-rate feedback channel. Based on limited feedback...

In this letter, we investigate the resource allocation for downlink multi-cell coordinated OFDMA wireless networks, in which power allocation and subcarrier scheduling are jointly optimized. Aiming at maximizing the weighted sum of the minimal user rates (WSMR) of coordinated cells under individual power constraints at each base station, an effective distributed resource allocation algorithm us...

It is well known that channel-dependent OFDMA resource assignment algorithms provide a significant performance improvement compared to static (i.e., channel-unaware) approaches. Such dynamic algorithms constantly adapt resource assignments to current channel states according to some objective function. Due to these dynamics, it is difficult to predict the resulting performance for such schemes ...

Whenever a communication system operates in a time-frequency dispersive radio channel, the link adaptation provides a benefit in terms of any system performance metric by employing time, frequency, and, in case of multiple users, multiuser diversities. With respect to an orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) system, link adaptation includes bit, power, and subcarrier allocations. Wh...

In this paper, we present a low-complexity bit and power allocation algorithm for multiuser MIMO-OFDM downlink transmission. In order to minimize the total transmit power under the condition that users'QoS requirements are satisfied, a novel resource allocation scheme is proposed to exploit the multiuser diversity gain. The proposed algorithm involves adaptive subcarrier allocation, adaptive mo...

Abstract— Orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) is an important technique to support high speed transmission of broadband traffic in wireless networks, especially broadband wireless local area networks (LANs). Based on OFDM, a new multiple access scheme, called OFDM-TDMA with subcarrier allocation (OFDMTDMA/SA), is introduced in this paper. It provides more flexibility in resource a...

Multiuser orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (MU-OFDM) is a promising technique for achieving high downlink capacities in future cellular systems. A key issue in MU-OFDM is the allocation of the OFDM subcarriers and power among users sharing the channel. Previous allocation algorithms cannot ensure fairness in advance. In this paper, a proportional rate adaptive resource allocation meth...

In this paper we study the problem of subframe, subchannel and power allocation in OFDMA-based multihop relay networks. The system consists of a base station (BS), a number of relay stations (RS) and mobile stations (MS). We consider frame by frame scheduling, where the frame is divided into two subframes such as BS-RS and RSMS subframes. We study two different problems, satisfying link rate re...
