Abstract

Aiming at mode selection in D2D communication, a mode selection strategy based on social-aware was proposed. In addition to physical connection status, users’ social relationships also served as an observation element. Through relationship between users, the closeness of user relationship can be judged, and then through users’ reference, the similarity between users can be obtained. In this way, by combining physical connection with social relationships, users’ aggregate utility was acquired. According to the physical connection quality and the social relationship strength, taking maximizing users’ aggregate utility as the goal, a random algorithm was designed to match users. Simulation results show that mode selection based on social perception can effectively improve users’ aggregate utility.
