Abstract

Full-duplex (FD) transmission holds a great potential of improving the sum data rate of wireless communication systems. However, the self-interference introduced by the full-duplex transmitter brings a big challenge to enhance the energy efficiency. This paper investigates the power allocation problem in a full-duplex two-way (FDTW) communication network over an OFDM channel, aiming at improving the sum data rate and energy efficiency. We first characterize the sum rate and energy efficiency achieved in a single-carrier FDTW system. The optimal transmit power that achieves the maximal sum data rate is presented. The energy efficiency maximization problem is solved by using fractional programming. Then we further formulate sum rate and energy efficiency maximization problem in a multi-subcarrier FDTW system. In particular, the sub-optimal transmit power allocation which achieves a decent sum rate improvement is found by using a proposed iterative algorithm. By combining the iterative algorithm and fractional programming, we further maximize the energy efficiency of the multi-subcarrier system. With our proposed algorithm, we can easily obtain an optimal transmit power that approximates the global optimal solution. Simulation results show that using the obtained optimal transmit power allocation algorithm can significantly improve the sum rate and energy efficiency in both single-carrier and multi-subcarrier systems.
