Abstract: Facilitation of a network assisted device-decided system can increase throughput of D2D devices and the link reliability of macrocells. In a network assisted device-decided system a macrocell can broadcast resource allocation data to D2D devices. The D2D devices can then select channels and adjust transmission power to offload traffic from the macrocell, thus creating a high spectrum efficiency with low power.

Abstract: Methods for grouping MTC devices in MTC networks are proposed. One of the proposed methods includes grouping femto MTC devices into femto groups and grouping macro MTC devices into macro groups, where each of the assigned groups has its granted interval for delivering MTC messages. In the proposed method, it may detect network overload of each group or unsuccessful access request of each device, and statistically count consecutively accumulated number of occurrence of the CN overload of each group or accumulated number of occurrence of unsuccessful access request retries of each device. The group numbers, cycle time, and access probability of the macro groups or the femto groups may be adjusted according to the aforementioned accumulated numbers. In addition, the macro groups or the femto groups are merged or split according to determination based on the statistical counts.

Abstract: A joint subcarrier usage ratio and power allocation method, the system and base station, and a controller using the same are proposed. The method is adapted for a femtocell base station using OFDMA technology to jointly select transmission power and subcarrier usage ratio. The method includes a first adjustment process, which simultaneously, dynamically and jointly adjusts the transmission power and the subcarrier usage ratio so as to quickly satisfy capacity requirement and link reliability requirement. The method also includes a second adjustment process for slowly adjusting the transmission power and the subcarrier usage ratio after the capacity requirement and the link reliability requirement are both met in the first adjustment process for stability duration. The second adjustment process helps the femtocell base station achieve maximal power efficiency. An outer-loop control might be used in the method to relax the capacity requirement of one femtocell for quickly achieving a stable situation.
