Abstract
In this letter, we propose an optimal joint bandwidth and power allocation method for heterogeneous wireless networks (HetNets) by maximizing the users’ quality of experience (QoE), which is a widely used subjective metric reflecting the users’ satisfaction of the multimedia service. By taking two factors into consideration simultaneously: Rate Factor (RF) and Energy Factor (EF), we can measure the QoE of end-users effectively. An optimal QoE-driven allocation algorithm is further developed for maximizing the end-users’ QoE utility subject to the constraints of transmit bandwidth, power and data rate. The simulation results demonstrate the theoretical analysis.
