Abstract:

In the amplify-forward relay system, to content the goal of improving energy efficiency, a sub-carrier sequential pairing and a sparse code division multiple access (SCMA) codebook power joint resource allocation algorithm is proposed while ensuring the minimum rate requirements of each user. The energy efficiency resource allocation is modeled as a mixed integer optimization problem, and is divided into two independent sub-problems of sub-carrier pairing and codebook and power allocation. Firstly, the codebook and power allocation are presented, and the sub-carriers is paired based on energy efficiency.Then, in the case of fixed sub-carrier pairing, the optimal channel selection allocation method based on the energy efficiency codebook is used to transform the power problem into a concave function which contains important parameters. The concave function can be solved by Lagrangian function iteratively. Finally, codebook and power alternate iterative optimization until convergence. Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm can improve the average energy efficiency of the system by about 29% compared with other schemes, while also ensuring the minimum speed requirement of each user.
