Abstract:
Device-to-Device (D2D) communications are considered as one of the key technologies for 5G wireless communication systems. In this paper, a frequency reuse scheme, in which multiple D2D links share spectrum resources with multiple cellular links simultaneously, is studied. Two novel concepts are introduced, namely the D2D pool and the cellular pool. D2D links in the D2D pool reuse uplink resource blocks occupied by the cellular links in the corresponding cellular pool. To maximize the reuse of spectrum, an algorithm for searching maximum D2D pool is proposed. Moreover, an algorithm for solving the problem of resource competition between different D2D pools is proposed. Simulation results are provided to show that the proposed scheme can well support D2D communications in cellular networks and significantly improve the data rate of D2D links.
