Abstract
In this paper, we investigate the resource allocation scheme for orthogonal frequency division multiple access (OFDMA) full-duplex (FD) distributed antenna systems (DASs), in which both remote access units (RAUs) and users having the full-duplex capability. We aim to maximize the system spectral efficiency through jointly optimizing subcarrier assignment and power allocation, where users’ uplink/downlink quality of service requirements, per-user uplink/downlink transmit power constraints, and subcarrier reuse are considered. The user-centric virtual cell approach is adopted to reduce the computational and signaling overhead. Based on the successive convex approximation method and penalty factor, we propose an efficient overall optimization algorithm to tackle the non-convex optimization problem. Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm can achieve performance close to the exhaustive search algorithm, comparable to the hierarchical decomposition algorithm using the optimal subcarrier allocation scheme, and better than other benchmark algorithms. In addition, the proposed algorithm can guarantee fairness among users at a low cost of system spectral efficiency.
