Abstract For many years, researchers have explored power allocation (PA) algorithms driven by models in wireless networks where multiple-user communications with interference are present. Nowadays, data-driven machine learning methods have become quite popular in analyzing wireless communication systems, which among them deep reinforcement learning (DRL) has a significant role in solving optimization issues under certain constraints. To this purpose, in this paper, we investigate the PA problem in a -user multiple access channels (MAC), where transmitters (e.g., mobile users) aim to send an independent message to a common receiver (e.g., base station) through wireless channels. To this end, we first train… More >

Abstract To meet the high-performance requirements of fifth-generation (5G) and sixth-generation (6G) wireless networks, in particular, ultra-reliable and low-latency communication (URLLC) is considered to be one of the most important communication scenarios in a wireless network. In this paper, we consider the effects of the Rician fading channel on the performance of cooperative device-to-device (D2D) communication with URLLC. For better performance, we maximize and examine the system’s minimal rate of D2D communication. Due to the interference in D2D communication, the problem of maximizing the minimum rate becomes non-convex and difficult to solve. To solve this problem, a learning-to-optimize-based algorithm is proposed… More >

Abstract Recently many algorithms for allocation of power approaches have been suggested to increase the Energy Efficiency (EE) and Spectral Efficiency (EE) in the Distributed Antenna System (DAS). In addition, the method of conservation developed for the allocation of power is challenging for the enhancement because of their high complication during estimation. With the intention of increasing the EE and SE, the optimization of allocation of power is done on the basis of capacity of the antenna. The main goal is for the optimization of the power allocation to improve the spectral and energy efficiency with the increased capacity of the… More >

Abstract In the power domain, non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) supports multiple users on the same time-frequency resources, assigns different transmission powers to different users, and differentiates users by user channel gains. Multi-user signals are superimposed and transmitted in the power domain at the transmitting end by actively implementing controllable interference information, and multi-user detection algorithms, such as successive interference cancellation (SIC) is performed at the receiving end to demodulate the necessary user signals. In contrast to the orthogonal transmission method, the non-orthogonal method can achieve higher spectrum utilization. However, it will increase the receiver complexity. With the development of microelectronics technology,… More >

Abstract With the obvious throughput shortage in traditional cellular radio networks, Device-to-Device (D2D) communications has gained a lot of attention to improve the utilization, capacity and channel performance of next-generation networks.

Abstract Non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) has been seen as a promising technology for 5G communication. The performance optimization of NOMA systems depends on both power allocation (PA) and user pairing (UP). Most existing researches provide sub-optimal solutions with high computational complexity for PA problem and mainly focuses on maximizing the sum rate (capacity) without considering the fairness performance. Also, the joint optimization of PA and UP needs an exhaustive search. The main contribution of this paper is the proposing of a novel capacity maximization-based fair power allocation (CMFPA) with low-complexity in downlink NOMA. Extensive investigation and analysis of the joint impact… More >

Abstract Non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) is one of the leading technologies for 5G communication. User pairing (UP) and power allocation (PA) are the key controlling mechanisms for the optimization of the performance of NOMA systems. This paper presents a novel UP and PA (UPPA) technique for capacity and fairness maximization in NOMA called (CFM-UPPA). The impact of the power allocation coefficient and the ratio between the channel gains of the paired users on the sum-rate capacity and the fairness in NOMA is firstly investigated. Then, based on this investigation, the PA and UP algorithms of the CFM-UPPA technique are proposed. The… More >

Abstract Secret key generation (SKG) is an emerging technology to secure wireless communication from attackers. Therefore, the SKG at the physical layer is an alternate solution over traditional cryptographic methods due to wireless channels’ uncertainty. However, the physical layer secret key generation (PHY-SKG) depends on two fundamental parameters, i.e., coherence time and power allocation. The coherence time for PHY-SKG is not applicable to secure wireless channels. This is because coherence time is for a certain period of time. Thus, legitimate users generate the secret keys (SKs) with a shorter key length in size. Hence, an attacker can quickly get information about… More >

Abstract Non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) is one of the key 5G technology which can improve spectrum efficiency and increase the number of user connections by utilizing the resources in a non-orthogonal manner. NOMA allows multiple terminals to share the same resource unit at the same time. The receiver usually needs to configure successive interference cancellation (SIC). The receiver eliminates co-channel interference (CCI) between users and it can significantly improve the system throughput. In order to meet the demands of users and improve fairness among them, this paper proposes a new power allocation scheme. The objective is to maximize user fairness by… More >

Abstract One of the most effective technology for the 5G mobile communications is Device-to-device (D2D) communication which is also called terminal pass-through technology. It can directly communicate between devices under the control of a base station and does not require a base station to forward it. The advantages of applying D2D communication technology to cellular networks are: It can increase the communication system capacity, improve the system spectrum efficiency, increase the data transmission rate, and reduce the base station load. Aiming at the problem of co-channel interference between the D2D and cellular users, this paper proposes an efficient algorithm for resource… More >
