In this paper a novel cross layer resource allocation for downlink transmission with heterogeneous traffic in wireless networks is developed. The problem of efficient resource allocation for multiuser orthogonal frequency division multiplexing over Rayleigh fading channels is addressed. Subcarrier and power allocation are carried out sequentially to reduce the complexity. Assuming that the base...

Multiuser orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) with adaptive multiuser subcarrier allocation and adaptive modulation is considered. Assuming knowledge of the instantaneous channel gains for all users, we propose a multiuser OFDM subcarrier, bit, and power allocation algorithm to minimize the total transmit power. This is done by assigning each user a set of subcarriers and by deter...

This paper investigates the adaptive subcarrier and bit allocation algorithm for OFDMA systems. To minimize overall transmitted power, we propose a novel adaptive subcarrier and bit allocation algorithm based on channel state information (CSI) and quality state information (QSI). A suboptimal approach that separately performs subcarrier allocation and bit loading is proposed. It is shown that a...

This study investigates subcarrier and power allocation schemes in an OFDMA downlink system. To consider client demands, a goal programming approach is proposed. The proposed algorithm minimizes the weighted sum of each client’s dissatisfaction index. Simulations show that the sum of dissatisfaction indices can be reduced significantly. key words: OFMDA, downlink, subcarrier and power allocatio...

Abstract— In a multiple input single output orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (MISO OFDM) system, per-subcarrier antenna selection is employed to improve the data rate over frequency selective fading channels. The antenna selection is based on the channel gain and the power balancing is achieved through allocating equal number of subcarriers to each antenna. This scheme of antenna sele...

This work presents joint subcarrier, power and bit allocation schemes for multi-user OFDM based overlay cognitive radio under constraints on primary user throughput loss and total secondary user transmitted power. Closed form for expressions for the optimal power and bit allocations are initially derived. Subsequently, optimal and suboptimal algorithms to realise the joint subcarrier, power and...

Algorithms for joint subcarrier pairing and power allocation are investigated in order to maximize the worst-case energy efficiency (EE) in dual-hop decode-and-forward (DF) relay networks in the presence of an active eavesdropper. Accordingly, we study the impact of number of subcarriers on the trade-off in performance between the EE and the spectrum efficiency (SE). The formulated EE optimizat...

In this thesis, we develop an subcarrier transmission suboptimal power allocation algorithm and an underlay subcarrier transmission optimal power allocation algorithm for the orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM)-based cognitive radio (CR) systems with different statistical interference constraints imposed by different primary users (PUs). Given the fact that the interference constr...

In this paper, we investigate the power-minimizing resource allocation problem in multiuser cooperative relay communication systems. A joint optimization problem involving subcarrier assignment, relay selection and power allocation is formulated. Since the problem cannot be solved directly, we decompose it into three subproblems. According to the equivalent channel gains and the target rates of...
