摘要:

在本文中,我们研究了一个三层异构网络(HetNet)的下行链路性能。目的是通过部署无人机(UAV)作为飞行基站和小小区(SC)来增强宏小区的边缘容量,以在诸如临时热点区域或在地面网络不足或停止服务的灾难情况下的场景中提高室内用户的容量。无人机是具有有限飞行时间的能量受限设备,因此,我们制定了一个两层的优化方案,其中我们首先优化每个层的功耗,以提高系统的能量效率(EE)下的最低服务质量(QoS)的要求,这是其次优化无人机的平均悬停时间。我们得到的解决方案,这些非线性约束优化问题,首先利用拉格朗日乘子法,然后实施一个次梯度法获得收敛。结果表明,通过最优功率分配,系统EE与最大功率分配给用户(地面蜂窝用户或联网车辆)时相比显著提高。悬停时间优化导致UAV的飞行时间增加,从而提供更长持续时间的服务。

英文摘要:

In this paper, we investigate the downlink performance of a three-tier heterogeneous network (HetNet). The objective is to enhance the edge capacity of a macro cell by deploying unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) as flying base stations and small cells (SCs) for improving the capacity of indoor users in scenarios such as temporary hotspot regions or during disaster situations where the terrestrial network is either insufficient or out of service. UAVs are energy-constrained devices with a limited flight time, therefore, we formulate a two layer optimization scheme, where we first optimize the power consumption of each tier for enhancing the system energy efficiency (EE) under a minimum quality-of-service (QoS) requirement, which is followed by optimizing the average hover time of UAVs. We obtain the solution to these nonlinear constrained optimization problems by first utilizing the Lagrange multipliers method and then implementing a sub-gradient approach for obtaining convergence. The results show that through optimal power allocation, the system EE improves significantly in comparison to when maximum power is allocated to users (ground cellular users or connected vehicles). The hover time optimization results in increased flight time of UAVs thus providing service for longer durations.
