Abstract

Social-aware device-to-device (D2D) resource allocation utilizes social ties in human-formed social networks to allocate spectrum resources between D2D users and cellular users. In this letter, we consider the small size social communities formed by people with similar interests and exploit them to optimize the resource allocation of the communities. This results in an optimal graph matching problem among communities to solve the D2D resource allocation problem. Solutions are derived via bipartite graph matching and an effective small social community resource allocation algorithm corresponding to the cases of small and high D2D user loads.
