FCC new regulation for cognitive use of the TV white space spectrum provides a new means for improving traditional cellular network performance. But it also introduces a number of technical challenges. This letter studies one of the challenges, that is, given the significant differences in the propagation property and the transmit power limitations between the cellular band and the TV white space, how to jointly utilize both bands such that the benefit from the TV white space for improving cellular network performance is maximized. Both analytical and simulation results are provided.
In this letter, we propose the interference cancellation through interference alignment at the downlink of cognitive cellular networks. Interference alignment helps the spatial resources to be shared among primary and secondary cells and thus, it can provide higher degrees of freedom through interference cancellation. We derive and depict the achievable degrees of freedom. We also analyse and calculate the achievable sum rates applying water-filling optimal power allocation.
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 bit allocations are introduced. Numerical simulations are used to evaluate the performance of the joint resource allocation algorithms.
This letter investigates the power control and channel assignment problem in device-to-device (D2D) communications underlaying a non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) cellular network. With the successive interference cancellation decoding order constraints, our target is to maximize the sum rate of D2D pairs while guaranteeing the minimum rate requirements of NOMA-based cellular users. Specifically, the optimal conditions for power control of cellular users on each subchannel are derived first. Then, based on these results, we propose a dual-based iterative algorithm to solve the resource all…
In this paper, a resource allocation problem for an opportunistic cooperative cognitive radio network is considered, where cognitive radio nodes send their hard decisions to the fusion center. The fusion center plays dual role, i.e., takes the global decision (i.e., decision about the primary user's activity) as well as allocates transmission time durations among cognitive radio nodes. Revenue based utility functions are considered at the fusion center and cognitive radio nodes. An optimization problem is formulated to maximize the fusion center's revenue while satisfying some well defined con…
In recent years, there has been a growing interest in green cellular networks for the sake of reducing the energy dissipated by communications and networking devices, including the base stations (BSs) and battery-powered user terminals (UTs). This paper investigates the joint employment of cognition and cooperation techniques invoked for improving the energy efficiency of cellular networks. To be specific, the cellular devices first have to identify the unused spectral bands (known as spectrum holes) using their spectrum sensing functionality. Then, they cooperate for exploiting the detected s…
Cognitive radios hold tremendous promise for increasing the spectral efficiency of wireless communication systems. In this paper, an adaptive bit allocation algorithm is presented for orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) CR systems operating in a frequency selective fading environment. The algorithm maximizes the CR system throughput in the presence of narrowband interference, while guaranteeing a BER below a predefined threshold. The effect of imperfect channel estimation on the algorithm's performance is also studied.
We consider a device-to-device (D2D) underlaid cellular network, where each cellular channel can be shared by several D2D pairs and only one channel can be allocated to each D2D pair. We try to maximize the sum rate of D2D pairs while limiting the interference to cellular links. Due to the lack of global information in large scale networks, resource allocation is hard to be implemented in a centralized way. Therefore, we design a novel distributed resource allocation scheme which is based on local information and requires little coordination and communication between D2D pairs. Specifically, w…
In this paper, we investigate the resource allocation algorithm design for cooperative cognitive relaying multicarrier non-orthogonal multiple access (MC-NOMA) systems. In particular, the secondary base station serves multiple secondary users and simultaneously acts as a relay assisting the information transmission in the primary network. The resource allocation aims to maximize the weighted system throughput by jointly optimizing the power and subcarrier allocation for both the primary and the secondary networks while satisfying the quality-of-service requirements of the primary users. The al…
Resource allocation is of great importance in the next generation wireless communication systems, especially for cognitive radio networks (CRNs). Many resource allocation strategies have been proposed to optimize the performance of CRNs. However, it is challenging to implement these strategies and achieve real-time performance in wireless systems since most of them need accurate and timely channel state information and/or other network statistics. In this paper a resource allocation strategy based on deep neural networks (DNN) is proposed and the training method is presented to train the neura…
In this paper, we study the resource allocation in D2D underlaying cellular network with uncertain channel state information (CSI). For satisfying the diversity requirements of different users, i.e. the minimum rate requirement for cellular user and the reliability requirement for D2D user, we attempt to maximize the cellular user's throughput whilst ensuring a chance constraint for D2D user. Then, a robust resource allocation framework is proposed for solving the highly intractable chance constraint about D2D reliability requirement, where the CSI uncertainties are represented as a determinis…
Consider the cellular downlink Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiple Access (OFDMA) system where a single transmitter transmits signals to multiple receivers on multiple discrete subcarriers. To adapt fast channel fluctuations, the transmitter should be able to dynamically allocate subcarrier and power resources. Assuming perfect channel knowledge, we formulate the joint subcarrier and power allocation problem as two optimization problems: the first is the one of minimizing the total transmission power subject to quality of service constraints, and the second is the one of maximizing a system…
It is important to assess the effect of transmit power allocation schemes on the energy consumption on random cellular networks.

Based on the proposed interference and achievable rate model, an energy efficiency model is proposed for MIMO random cellular networks. Furthermore, the energy efficiency with average and water-filling power allocation schemes are presented, respectively. Numerical results indicate that the maximum limits of energy efficiency are alway…
In this paper, we investigate resource allocation algorithm design for full-duplex (FD) cognitive radio systems. The secondary network employs a FD base station for serving multiple half-duplex downlink and uplink users simultaneously. We study the resource allocation design for minimizing the maximum interference leakage to primary users while providing quality of service for secondary users. The imperfectness of the channel state information of the primary users is taken into account for robust resource allocation algorithm design. The algorithm design is formulated as a non-convex optimizat…
This paper proposes a centralized decision making framework at the macro base station (MBS) for device to device (D2D) communication underlaying a two-tier cellular network. We consider a D2D pair in the presence of an MBS and a femto access point, each serving a user, with quality of service constraints for all users. Our proposed solution encompasses mode selection (choosing between cellular or reuse or dedicated mode), resource allocation (in cellular and dedicated mode) and power control (in reuse mode) within a single framework. The framework prioritizes D2D dedicated mode if the D2D pair…
In this paper, we propose a resource allocation algorithm for the downlink of sectorized two-dimensional (2-D) OFDMA cellular networks assuming statistical Channel State Information (CSI) and fractional frequency reuse. The proposed algorithm can be implemented in a distributed fashion without the need to any central controlling units. Its performance is analyzed assuming fast fading Rayleigh channels and Gaussian distributed multicell interference. We show that the transmit power of this simple algorithm tends, as the number of users grows to infinity, to the same limit as the minimal power r…
Spectrum management has been identified as a crucial step towards enabling the technology of a cognitive radio network (CRN). Most of the current works dealing with spectrum management in the CRN focus on a single task of the problem, e.g., spectrum sensing, spectrum decision, spectrum sharing or spectrum mobility. In this two-part paper, we argue that for certain network configurations, jointly performing several tasks of the spectrum management improves the spectrum efficiency. Specifically, our aim is to study the uplink resource management problem in a CRN where there exist multiple cognit…
Vehicular communications are the key enabler of traffic reduction and road safety improvement referred to as cellular vehicle-to-everything (C-V2X) communications. Considering the numerous transmitting entities in next generation cellular networks, most existing resource allocation algorithms are impractical or non-effective to ensure reliable C-V2X communications which lead to safe intelligent transportation systems. We study a centralized framework to develop a low-complexity, scalable, and practical resource allocation scheme for dense C-V2X communications. The NP-hard sum-rate maximization…
Cellular network performance can significantly benefit from direct device-to-device (D2D) communication, but interference from cochannel D2D communication limits the performance gain. In hybrid networks consisting of D2D and cellular links, finding the optimal interference management is challenging. In particular, we show that the problem of maximizing network throughput while guaranteeing predefined service levels to cellular users is non- convex and hence intractable. Instead, we adopt a distributed approach that is computationally extremely efficient, and requires minimal coordination, comm…
In this pair of papers (Part I and Part II in this issue), we investigate the issue of power control and subcarrier assignment in a sectorized two-cell downlink OFDMA system impaired by multicell interference. As recommended for WiMAX, we assume that the first part of the available bandwidth is likely to be reused by different base stations (and is thus subject to multicell interference) and that the second part of the bandwidth is shared in an orthogonal way between the different base stations (and is thus protected from multicell interference). Although the problem of multicell resource allo…
The problem of user scheduling and power allocation in full-duplex (FD) cellular networks is considered, where a FD base station communicates simultaneously with one half-duplex (HD) user on each downlink and uplink channel. First, we propose low complexity user scheduling algorithms aiming at maximizing the sum rate of the considered FD system. Second, we derive the optimal power allocation for the two communication links, which is then exploited to introduce efficient metrics for FD/HD mode switching in the scheduling procedure, in order to further boost the system rate performance. We analy…
In this paper, we consider a non-orthogonal multiple access cognitive radio network, where a full-duplex multi-antenna relay assists transmission from a base station (BS) to a cognitive far user, whereas, at the same time, the BS transmits to a cognitive near user. Our objective is to enlarge the far-near user rate region by maximizing the rate of the near user under a constraint that the rate of the far user is above a certain threshold. To this end, a non-convex joint optimization problem of relay beamforming and the transmit powers at the BS and cognitive relay is solved as a semi-definite …
Cognitive radios have been proposed as agile technologies to boost the spectrum utilization. This paper tackles the problem of channel estimation and its impact on downlink transmissions in an underlay cognitive radio scenario. We consider primary and cognitive base stations, each equipped with multiple antennas and serving multiple users. Primary networks often suffer from the cognitive interference, which can be mitigated by deploying beamforming at the cognitive systems to spatially direct the transmissions away from the primary receivers. The accuracy of the estimated channel state informa…
In this paper, we investigate the joint spectrum sensing and resource allocation problem to maximize throughput capacity of an OFDM-based cognitive radio link with a cognitive relay. By applying a cognitive relay that uses decode and forward (D&F), we achieve more reliable communications, generating less interference (by needing less transmit power) and more diversity gain. In order to account for imperfections in spectrum sensing, the proposed schemes jointly modify energy detector thresholds and allocates transmit powers to all cognitive radio (CR) subcarriers, while simultaneously assigning…
In this paper, we propose a multiple-level power allocation strategy for the secondary user (SU) in cognitive radio (CR) networks. Different from the conventional strategies, where SU either stays silent or transmit with a constant/binary power depending on the busy/idle status of the primary user (PU), the proposed strategy allows SU to choose different power levels according to a carefully designed function of the receiving energy. The way of the power level selection is optimized to maximize the achievable rate of SU under the constraints of average transmit power at SU and average interfer…
This article provides an overview of the state-of-art results on communication resource allocation over space, time, and frequency for emerging cognitive radio (CR) wireless networks. Focusing on the interference-power/interference-temperature (IT) constraint approach for CRs to protect primary radio transmissions, many new and challenging problems regarding the design of CR systems are formulated, and some of the corresponding solutions are shown to be obtainable by restructuring some classic results known for traditional (non-CR) wireless networks. It is demonstrated that convex optimization…
This paper studies cooperative schemes for the inter-cell interference control in orthogonal-frequency-divisionmultiple- access (OFDMA) cellular systems. The downlink transmission in a simplified two-cell system is examined, where both cells simultaneously access the same frequency band using OFDMA. The joint power and subcarrier allocation over the two cells is investigated for maximizing their sum throughput with both centralized and decentralized implementations. Particularly, the decentralized allocation is achieved via a new cooperative interference control approach, whereby the two cells…
Exploiting cognition to the cache-enabled device-to-device (D2D) communication underlaying the multi-channel cellular network is the main focus of this paper. D2D pairs perform direct communications via sensing the available cellular channels, bypassing the base station (BS). Dynamic service is considered and the network performance is evaluated with the stochastic geometry. Node locations are first modeled as mutually independent Poisson Point Processes, and the service queueing process is formulated. Then the corresponding tier association and cognitive access protocol are developed. The del…

Under this optimization framework resources are allocated within virtual cells encompassing several base-stations and the users within their coverage area. Incorporating the virtual cell concept enables the utilization of more sophisticated cooperative communication schemes such as coordinated multi-point decoding. We form the virtual cells using hierarchical clustering given a particular number of such cells. Once the virtual cells are formed, we consider a cooperat…
The implementation of device-to-device (D2D) underlaying or overlaying pre-existing cellular networks has received much attention due to the potential of enhancing the total cell throughput, reducing power consumption and increasing the instantaneous data rate. In this paper we propose a distributed power allocation scheme for D2D OFDMA communications and, in particular, we consider the two operating modes amenable to a distributed implementation: dedicated and reuse modes. The proposed schemes address the problem of maximizing the users' sum rate subject to power constraints, which is known t…
We consider energy-efficient wireless resource management in cellular networks where BSs are equipped with energy harvesting devices, using statistical information for traffic intensity and harvested energy. The problem is formulated as adapting BSs' on-off states, active resource blocks (e.g. subcarriers) as well as power allocation to minimize the average grid power consumption in a given time period while satisfying the users' quality of service (blocking probability) requirements. It is transformed into an unconstrained optimization problem to minimize a weighted sum of grid power consumpt…
Device-to-device(D2D) underlaying communication brings great benefits to the cellular networks from the improvement of coverage and spectral efficiency at the expense of complicated transceiver design. With frequency spectrum sharing mode, the D2D user generates interference to the existing cellular networks either in downlink or uplink. Thus the resource allocation for D2D pairs should be designed properly in order to reduce possible interference, in particular for uplink. In this paper, we introduce a novel bandwidth allocation scheme to maximize the utilities of both D2D users and cellular …

We present formulations of cross-layer optimization problems as well as effective algorithms to solving the probl…
This work presents a new network optimization framework for cellular networks using neighborhood-based optimization. Under this optimization framework resources are allocated within virtual cells encompassing several base-stations and the users within their coverage areas. We form the virtual cells using hierarchical clustering with a minimax linkage criterion given a particular number of such cells. Once the virtual cells are formed, we consider an interference coordination model in which base-stations in a virtual cell jointly allocate the channels and power to users within the virtual cell.…
In this letter, the problem of optimal resource power allocation and relay selection for two way relaying cognitive radio networks using half duplex Decode and Forward (DF) and Amplify and Forward (AF) systems are investigated. The primary and secondary networks are assumed to access the spectrum at the same time, so that the interference introduced to the primary network caused by the secondary network should be below a certain interference threshold. In addition, a selection strategy between the AF and DF schemes is applied depending on the achieved secondary sum rate without affecting the q…
Device-to-Device (D2D) communications underlaying cellular networks is a viable network technology that can potentially increase spectral utilization and improve power efficiency for proximitybased wireless applications and services. However, a major challenge in such deployment scenarios is the interference caused by D2D links when sharing the same resources with cellular users. In this work, we propose a channel allocation (CA) scheme together with a set of three power control (PC) schemes to mitigate interference in a D2D underlaid cellular system modeled as a random network using the mathe…

This letter studies the limited feedback cognitive radio system, where the primary users (PU) are interfered by the secondary transmitter (ST) due to the imperfect beamforming. We propose to allocate the feedback bits among multiple PUs to minimize the maximum interference caused by the ST, by exploiting the heterogeneous average channel gains. In addition, we study the problem of minimizing the total feedback bits under a predefined interference threshold at the PUs. The solutions with low complexity are proposed for the studied problems, and the performances of bit allocations are analyzed. …
This paper studies optimal bandwidth and power allocation in a cognitive radio network where multiple secondary users (SUs) share the licensed spectrum of a primary user (PU) under fading channels using the frequency division multiple access scheme. The sum ergodic capacity of all the SUs is taken as the performance metric of the network. Besides all combinations of the peak/average transmit power constraints at the SUs and the peak/average interference power constraint imposed by the PU, total bandwidth constraint of the licensed spectrum is also taken into account. Optimal bandwidth allocati…

In this paper, we investigate resource allocation algorithm design for intelligent reflecting surface (IRS)-assisted multiuser cognitive radio (CR) systems. In particular, an IRS is deployed to mitigate the interference caused by the secondary network to the primary users. The beamforming vectors at the base station (BS) and the phase shift matrix at the IRS are jointly optimized for maximization of the sum rate of the secondary system. The algorithm design is formulated as a non-convex optimization problem taking into account the maximum interference tolerance of the primary users. To tackle …
In the first part of this paper, we have studied solely the spectrum sharing aspect of the above problem, and proposed algorithms for the CUs in the single AP network to efficiently share the spectrum. In this second part of the paper, we build upon our previous understanding of the single AP network, and formulate the joint spectrum decision and spectrum sharing problem in a multiple AP network into a non-cooperative game, in which the feasible strategy of a player contains a discrete variable (the AP/spectrum decision) and a continuous vector (the power allocation among multiple channels). T…
The model-based power allocation algorithm has been investigated for decades, but it requires the mathematical models to be analytically tractable and it usually has high computational complexity. Recently, the data-driven model-free machine learning enabled approaches are being rapidly developed to obtain near-optimal performance with affordable computational complexity, and deep reinforcement learning (DRL) is regarded as of great potential for future intelligent networks. In this paper, the DRL approaches are considered for power control in multi-user wireless communication cellular network…
Harvesting energy from nature (solar, wind etc.) is envisioned as a key enabler for realizing green wireless networks. However, green energy sources are geographically distributed and the power amount is random which may not enough to power a base station by a single energy site. Burning brown energy sources such as coal and crude oil, though companied with carbon dioxide emission, provides stable power. In this paper, without sacrificing communication quality, we investigate how to perform green energy allocation to abate the dependence on brown energy with hybrid brown and green energy injec…
To achieve a good tradeoff between the consumed power and the harvested power, a robust resource optimization problem is studied in a multiple-input single-output cognitive radio network with simultaneous wireless information and power transfer under imperfect channel state information. Unlike most of the existing works that assume an ideal linear energy harvesting (EH) model, we assume two practical non-linear EH models. In order to solve the resulting challenging non-convex problem, we propose an algorithm based on successive convex approximation and prove that a rank-one solution is obtaine…
This paper investigates the cooperative full-duplex device-to-device (D2D) communication underlaying cellular network, where the cellular user (CU) acts as a full-duplex relay to assist the D2D communication. To simultaneously support D2D relaying and uplink transmission, superposition coding and successive interference cancellation are adopted at the CU and the D2D receiver, respectively. The achievable rate region and joint outage probability are derived to characterize the performance of the considered system. An optimal power allocation scheme is proposed to maximize the minimum achievable…
We consider a system with a single base station communicating with multiple users over orthogonal channels while being assisted by multiple relays. Several recent works have suggested that, in such a scenario, selection, i.e., a single relay helping the source, is the best relaying option in terms of the resulting complexity and overhead. However, in a multiuser setting, optimal relay assignment is a combinatorial problem. In this paper, we formulate a related convex optimization problem that provides an extremely tight upper bound on performance and show that selection is, almost always, inhe…
In this paper, we investigate the propagation coupling loss (captures all sources of attenuation between serving cell and mobile station (MS)) and geometry metric (GM) (downlink average signal-to-interference plus noise ratio) performance of mmWave cellular networks for outdoor and indoor MSs, considering urban micro (UMi) environments. Based on these studies, we identify effective mmWave frequency bands for cellular communication. We consider 3GPP compliant system-level simulations with two power allocation schemes: 1) transmit power scaled with communication bandwidth, and 2) constant total …
In a companion paper, we characterized the optimal resource allocation in terms of power control and subcarrier assignment, for a downlink sectorized OFDMA system. In our model, the network is assumed to be one dimensional for the sake of analysis. We also assume that a certain part of the available bandwidth is likely to be reused by different base stations while that the other part of the bandwidth is shared in an orthogonal way between these base stations. The optimal resource allocation characterized in Part I is obtained by minimizing the total power spent by the network under the constra…
The introduction of device-to-device (D2D) into cellular networks poses many new challenges in the resource allocation design due to the co-channel interference caused by spectrum reuse and limited battery life of user equipments (UEs). In this paper, we propose a distributed interference-aware energy-efficient resource allocation algorithm to maximize each UE's energy efficiency (EE) subject to its specific quality of service (QoS) and maximum transmission power constraints. We model the resource allocation problem as a noncooperative game, in which each player is self-interested and wants to…
This work proposes a new resource allocation optimization framework for cellular networks using "fog" or neighborhood-based optimization rather than fully centralized or fully decentralized methods. In neighborhood-based optimization resources are allocated within virtual cells encompassing several base-stations and the users within their coverage area. As the number of base-stations within a virtual cell increases, the framework reverts to centralized optimization, and as this number decreases it reverts to decentralized optimization. We address two tasks that must be carried out in the fog o…

To enhance the performance of secondary transmission, optimal power allocation is performed at the secondary transmitter with a constraint on the maximum allowable outage threshold specified by the PUs. Further, the …
We consider decentralized multi-antenna cognitive radio networks where secondary (cognitive) users are granted simultaneous spectrum access along with license-holding (primary) users. We treat the problem of distributed beamforming and rate allocation for the secondary users such that the minimum weighted secondary rate is maximized. Such an optimization is subject to (1) a limited weighted sum-power budget for the secondary users and (2) guaranteed protection for the primary users in the sense that the interference level imposed on each primary receiver does not exceed a specified level.
