  • Patent number: 9949215
    Abstract: Embodiments of the disclosure provide a method and apparatus for resource sharing for D2D and cellular communications in a multicell network. The method comprises steps of: acquiring CSI on channels relating to D2D pair and a plurality of cellular users that potentially share resources with the D2D pair; and determining D2D transmit powers of the D2D pair on a plurality of frequency bands allocated to the plurality of cellular users and cellular transmit powers of the plurality of cellular users based on the CSI, to improve throughput of the multicell network.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: May 3, 2013
    Date of Patent: April 17, 2018
    Assignee: NEC (China) Co., Ltd.
    Inventors: Chaofeng Li, Ming Lei, Jiaheng Wang, Daohua Zhu, Hua Zhang, Chunming Zhao
  • Patent number: 9554388
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides a method and an apparatus of resource sharing for D2D and cellular communications. The method may comprise: determining a cellular user set containing potential cellular users that may share resources with a D2D pair; and determining transmit power of the D2D pair on a frequency band of at least one cellular user in the cellular user set and transmit power of the at least one cellular user through maximizing throughput of the D2D pair with a quality of service (QoS) constraint and a power budget constraint of each of the potential cellular users and a transmit power constraint of the D2D pair. With embodiments of the present disclosure, it may provide a non-orthogonal resource sharing solution in which a D2D pair can reuse resources of the cellular users as more as possible while the QoS of all the cellular users are guaranteed, whereby the performance of the D2D user may be improved greatly.
