Description

Joint resource allocation method in NOMA relay system
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of communication, and particularly relates to a game theory-based NOMA relay system joint resource allocation method.
Background
With the demand of rapid development of future cellular networks, the next generation mobile communication services are urgently needed to provide smaller time delay and greater connectivity under limited spectrum resources. The conventional ofdma technology is difficult to cope with the explosive growth of mobile terminals and data services, and therefore, a new ofdma technology is urgently needed to meet the requirements of low delay and higher spectrum efficiency of future wireless communication networks. In recent years, the non-orthogonal multiple access technology provides a feasible scheme to improve the performance of a wireless communication network with limited frequency spectrum, compared with OFDMA, NOMA can accommodate multiple users simultaneously on the same frequency spectrum by using the difference of different terminals and adopting a power domain multiplexing or coding domain multiplexing scheme.
Unlike OFDMA systems, NOMA systems allow multiple users to occupy the same spectral resources to achieve multiplexing gain, but also inevitably cause interference among multiple users. In recent years, some scholars combine NOMA with relay technology to generate some representative heuristic articles, however, most of the attempts aim at the performance analysis of the multi-user NOMA relay system, and few articles study the resource allocation problem of the NOMA relay system. In the resource allocation algorithm of the existing NOMA relay system, the continuous interference elimination technology is applied more commonly, the signals received and decoded at the user terminal can reduce the inter-channel interference, the average throughput is maximized as an optimization target, a combined power allocation and user assignment optimization problem is provided, and a decoupling method is used for solving to obtain a suboptimal solution with low complexity.
Consider the optimization problem of a NOMA-based multi-user relay system in a multi-user and scarce spectrum resource scenario. Especially in cooperative cellular networks, the number of users is always larger than the number of channels of relays and base stations, which results in poor user satisfaction. By introducing the NOMA technology into the relay network, partial users are allowed to share the limited channel resources of the relay, and when the users share the same channel resources, the SIC technology is adopted to eliminate the interference among the users. With the goal of maximizing the average user rate, a joint user channel assignment and power allocation optimization problem is proposed. The joint resource allocation problem is non-convex and needs to be converted into a convex form, however, the converted convex problem is an NP-hard problem and needs an exhaustive search algorithm to be obtained, but the algorithm cannot be obtained in a short time and cannot be used for practice.

The above method is described and demonstrated in detail below with reference to FIGS. 1 and 2
Non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) is widely used in wireless communication scenarios with resource shortage, and due to its highly spectrally efficient nature, the employment of NOMA technology may allow multiple users to multiplex the same channel. In the first time slot, the base station sends signals to the relay R on all K channels, and since M is larger than K, the NOMA mechanism is adopted and M users are divided into K groups, each group independently occupies one channel and users in the same group use the same channel, which is respectively denoted as A1,A2,...,AK. For example, AkIs indicated in the channel SCkA subset of users. Assuming that all instantaneous channel information is available at the relay R, the base station transmission in the first time slot and the relay transmission in the second time slot take the same user channel assignment, i.e., the relay R decodes the forwarding base station in the second time slotAnd all signals are transmitted to the users in the same channel through the NOMA mode, and the user channel assignment strategy adopted by the second time slot is the same as that adopted by the first time slot.
In the first time slot, the relay R is in the sub-channel SCkThe composite signal from the base station to user m is received, denoted as:

By analyzing equations (1) - (3), the received interference at relay R and user m is represented as:

due to consideration of the NOMA transmission mechanism and the SIC technology, the interference among users can be effectively reduced. For example, consider the channel gain in equation (3)

according to the DF Relay protocol, user m is on the channel SCkThe data rate of the two slots above can be expressed as:
Figure GDA0001891354990000088
for ease of understanding, a binary K × M user-channel allocation factor Φ is defined as { Φ ═ fk,mIn which phik,m1 denotes that channel k is allocated to user m, whereas phik,m0 means that no k is allocated to user m. Since the scenario assumed is that the number of users is greater than the number of channels, it is specified that each user can only occupy one channel, but that channel k can be allocated to at most

In a downlink NOMA network, a first time slot base station broadcasts and sends M pieces of user information to a relay and a user on all K channels. And in the second time slot, after the user information is relay-decoded, the user information is forwarded on the same channel, all the user terminals receive the information of the two time slots at the maximum ratio, and the SIC technology is adopted for decoding to eliminate interference. For convenience and simplicity, it is specified that the channel gains are ordered from small to large as 1,2k-1,SkAnd describe the set A as a subscriptkA user.

as can be seen from the joint resource optimization problem P2, the present embodiment proposes a joint user-channel allocation and power allocation problem, aiming to solve the system power limitation and maximize the average sum rate of users under the user QoS guarantee; however, the joint resource allocation problem P2 is an NP-hard problem, and solving the NP-hard problem generally requires exhaustive search and has a high computational complexity, and the following embodiment provides an iterative optimization algorithm to attempt to solve the joint resource allocation problem with a low computational complexity.
Theorem 2: the user averaging and rate maximization problem in the joint resource allocation problem P2 is the NP-hard problem. Proof of theorem 2: the certification process is divided into two cases,

and
Figure GDA0001891354990000119
when in use
Figure GDA00018913549900001110
The optimization problem P2 translates into a joint user channel assignment and power allocation problem that has proven to be an NP-hard problem in conventional OFDMA systems.
When in use
Figure GDA00018913549900001111
We need to demonstrate that the optimization problem P2 is still a NP-hard problem even though the power allocation at each channel is a fixed value. However, the three-dimensional matching problem with fixed power allocation has proven to be an NP-complete problem in the prior art, and thus, the optimization problem P2 is a special case of the fixed power allocation problem, which is an NP-hard problem.
Finally, averageUser and rate maximization problem P2, including
Figure GDA0001891354990000121
And
Figure GDA0001891354990000122
two cases, an NP-hard problem.
In conclusion, theorem 2 proves.
It has been demonstrated that the optimization problem P2 is an NP-hard problem, and then the convex optimization theory is used to decouple the resource allocation problem P2 into two sub-problems, namely the user channel assignment problem under fixed power allocation and the power allocation problem under fixed user-channel assignment.
To solve the user channel assignment problem, the utility functions of the user and channel are first defined, respectively denoted as
Figure GDA0001891354990000123
And

the following can be obtained:

wherein

Figure GDA0001891354990000129
applying matching game theory[169]The optimization problem of user channel assignment P3 can be equivalent to a many-to-one matching gambling problem with external effects.
Definition 1: a user-channel pair is represented by a matching mu, where
Figure GDA00018913549900001210
Then the user set is M {1, 2., M }, and the channel set K is K {1, 2., K }, which satisfy | μ (M) | 1, | μ (K) | q |kWhere μ (M) — { M ∈ M }, μ (K) — { K ∈ M },
Figure GDA00018913549900001211
defined as a set of element matches.
| represents the number of elements of the matching set; mu (m) | 1 indicates that to avoid more interference among users, one user is allocated only one channel; mu (k) | qkRepresenting the maximum number of users, q, that each channel can accommodatekIs the maximum number of users (quota) that can be served by channel k.
The embodiment adopts a rational matching game method, and assumes that all users and channels are rational, or that all users and channels respectively pursue maximization of self benefits.
Definition 2: the preference list is an ordered set of participants i (i ∈ M @), which includes a subset of all cases. Given B1,B2,...,BnIs a subset of participant i, participant i's preference list p (i) ═ B1,B2,...,BnMeans for B1,B2,...,BnIs a potentially matching pair of participants i, and B1 fi B2 fi...fi Bn
The preference list set of users and channels is defined as
P={P(D1),P(D2),...,P(DM),P(SC1),P(SC2),...,P(SCK) In which P (D)m) And P (SC)k) Are each DmAnd SCkA preference list of (a). It is assumed that the preferences of the user and channel are transitive, i.e. if Lf is presentmL 'and L' fmL', then LfmL ", where m is one participant in the matching game, and L, L' and L" are subsets of participant m.
Definition 3: if one of the following two conditions exists:
(1) for user m,. mu.m.noteq.k and
Figure GDA00018913549900001311
(2) for channel k, μ (k) ≠ m and
Figure GDA00018913549900001312
then the matching μ is said to be blocked by the user channel pair (m, μ (m)) or (μ (k), k).
Definition 4: if there is no blocking for a matching μ, the matching μ is said to be stable.
In particular, users select different channels by establishing their preferences with utility functions, both matching for any user m and for any two channels K, K' e K, K ≠ K
Figure GDA0001891354990000131
And m is equal to mu (k) and m is equal to mu' (k), and the following properties are satisfied:
Figure GDA0001891354990000132
similarly, for any channel k and any two users M, M belongs to M, M is not equal to M, and the two kinds of matching are carried out
Figure GDA0001891354990000133
And m ═ μ (k), m ═ μ' (k), and the following properties are satisfied:

For the proof of lemma 1: without loss of generality, the reference function is chosen to be the utility function, as in formula (39) and formula (40) in definition 5, there are two different possible transmission modes,
Figure GDA0001891354990000147
and
Figure GDA0001891354990000148
thus, the attestation process of lemma 1 needs to be divided into two cases.
