Proportional Fair Scheduling

This paper provides an analytical evaluation of the performance of proportional fair (PF) scheduling in Orthogonal Frequency-Division Multiple Access (OFDMA) wireless systems. OFDMA represents a promising multiple access scheme for transmission over wireless channels, as it combines the orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) modulation and subcarrier allocation. On the other hand, the PF scheduling is an efficient resource allocation scheme with good fairness characteristics. Consequently, OFDMA with PF scheduling represents an attractive solution to deliver high data rate services to multiple users simultaneously with a high degree of fairness. We investigate a two-dimensional (time slot and frequency subcarrier) PF scheduling algorithm for OFDMA systems and evaluate its performance analytically and by simulations. We derive approximate closed-form expressions for the average throughput, throughput fairness index, and packet delay. Computer simulations are used for verification. The analytical results agree well with the results from simulations, which show the good accuracy of the analytical expressions.

<p>Orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) is a transmission system that uses multiple orthogonal carriers that are sent out at the same time. OFDM is a technique for mobile and wireless communication that has high-efficient frequency utilization, high data-rate transmission, simple and efficient implementation using the fast Fourier transform (FFT) and the inverse fast Fourier transform (IFFT), and reduces inter symbol interference (ISI) by inserting cyclic prefix (CP). One of the most important approaches in an OFDM system is channel estimation. In this paper, the orthogonal frequency division multiplexing system with the Rayleigh channel module is analyzed for different areas. The proposed approach used large numbers of subcarriers to transmit the signals over 64-QAM modulation with pilot add channel estimation. The accuracy of the OFDM system is shown in the measuring of the relationships of peak power to the noise ratio and bit error rate.</p>

Allocation Method

The goal of LTE (Long Term Evolution) is to provide high data transmission rate, scalable bandwidth, low latency, high-mobility, etc. LTE employs OFDM (Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing) and SC-FDMA (Single Carrier - Frequency Division Multiple Access) for downlink and uplink data transmission, respectively. As to SC-FDMA, there are two constraints in doing resource allocation. First, the allocated resource blocks (RBs) should be contiguous. Second, those of the allocated RBs are forced to use the same modulation technique. The aim of this research is to propose a QoS-constraint resource allocation scheduling to enhance data transmission for uplink SC-FDMA. The proposed scheduling is a three-stage approach. In the first stage, it uses a time domain scheduler to differentiate user equipment (UE) services according to their distinct QoS service requirements. In the second stage, it uses a frequency domain scheduler to prioritize UE services based on channel quality. In the third stage, it limits the number of times of modulation downgrade of RBs allocation in order to enhance system throughput. In the simulations, the proposed method is compared to fixed sub-carrier dynamic resource allocation method and adaptive dynamic sub-carrier resource allocation method. Simulation results show that the proposed method outperforms the other two methods in terms of throughput, transmission delay, packet loss ratio, and RB utilization.

Selective Mapping

As the world moves toward 3G/4G there is a need for high data rate and relatively wide bandwidths. OFDM (Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing) a form of multicarrier modulation technique is widely used to achieve high speed efficient data transmission at the rate of several Mbps. It is used in Wi-Fi standards like 802.11a, 802.11n, 802.11ac, broadcast standards like Digital Video Broadcast (DVB) and cellular telecommunications standard LTE. The main advantage of OFDM compared to single carrier modulation is their robustness to channel fading in wireless environment, high baud rates and less inter symbol interference. One major disadvantage is its High PAPR. PTS partial transmit sequences (PTS) and selective mapping are proposed to reduce it. Since FFT is core block of OFDM it must be able to adapt itself to ever changing digital world. A function specific reconfigurable 2k SDF (Single path delay feedback) FFT is proposed. It utilizes less power and can be configured for different FFT sizes ranging from 16-point to 1024-point. The validity and efficiency of the architecture have been verified by simulation in hardware description language VERILOG and targeted on Virtex-6 device. Finally PAPR is estimated by MATLAB simulation.

Throughput Improvement

This paper aims at the frequency-domain packet scheduling (FDPS) problem in orthogonal frequency division multiple access (OFDMA) system. Under users’ data queue size constraints, a new swap-based FDPS algorithm is proposed to achieve further improvement in system throughput. In this algorithm, the swap of physical resource blocks (PRBs) between different users is introduced to give a comprehensive view of the overall scheduling process. Moreover, the proposed algorithm optimizes the choosing method of swap candidates and always tries to select the user who can maximize the throughput improvement. Simulation results demonstrate that this new algorithm can improve the system throughput significantly as well as reduce the resource waste effectively.
