Abstract
A pricing-based joint spectrum and power allocation framework is proposed for decentralized interference coordination among device-to-device (D2D) communications and cellular users (CUs), with the quality-of-service guarantee. The interlayer interference from D2D pairs to CUs is controlled by the base station through setting a price for each D2D channel usage. The intralayer interference among D2D pairs is mitigated distributively using a game-theoretic approach, where the D2D pairs compete for the spectrum until a Nash equilibrium is achieved. The effectiveness of the proposed strategy, including a practical scheme with limited signaling overhead, is demonstrated through comparing with a centralized scheme.
