Abstract
Device-to-device (D2D) communication is a promising method to reduce power consumption and improve the throughput of cellular networks. However, densely deployed D2D pairs could result in severe interference to cellular users without proper power control. Therefore, the discrete location-aware power control (DLPC) scheme is proposed in uplink D2D underlaid cellular networks. The entire cell area is divided into several regions, and a total power budget for each region is conducted with weighted allocation, to meet the constraint on the outage probability of cellular user. Then DLPC scheme requires only the locations of active D2D pairs rather than channel information or massive calculations, which is of low complexity in implementation. Simulation indicates that DLPC can improve the outage probability of D2D pairs and the network throughput compared with the traditional greedy power control scheme.
