Abstract
Recently, the 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) has developed a sidelink system to compensate for the explosive increase in mobile data traffic. However, there are numerous challenging technical problems that must be overcome. One major problem is inter-cell interference management. 3GPP has considered network-assisted interference cancellation and suppression to improve both the signal-to-noise-plus-interference ratio (SINR) and receiver performance by suppression or cancellation of inter-cell interference signals. In this paper, we propose a novel advanced receiver to reduce the interference from neighbor cell in sidelink systems. The proposed receiver can suppress and cancel the interference by combining interference rejection combining with successive interference cancellation. We perform a system-level simulation based on 20 MHz bandwidth of 3GPP LTE-Advanced system. Simulation results show that the proposed receiver can improve the SINR, throughput, and spectral efficiency, relative to a conventional system.
