Performance Evaluation of Device-to-Device Communications Based on System-Level Simulation in Cellular Networks

Performance Analysis of Device to Device Communications Overlaying/Underlaying Cellular Network

Minimizing the outage probability and maximizing throughput are two important aspects in device to device (D2D) communications, which are greatly related to each other. In this paper, first, the exact formulas of the outage probability for D2D communications underlaying or overlaying cellular network are derived which jointly experience Additive White Gaussian Noise (AWGN) and Rayleigh multipat...

Performance analysis of device-to-device communications underlaying cellular networks

Device-to-device (D2D) communications underlaying cellular networks are considered to be promising communication modes to improve network radio resource efficiency and provide higher transmission data rates to devices close to each other. However, when D2D communications reuse cellular resources, the resulting interference will cause significant performance loss to cellular users. In this paper...

Scalability of Device-to-Device Communications in Cellular Networks

In current cellular networks the demand of traffic is rapidly increasing and new techniques need to be developed to accommodate future service requirements. Device-to-Device (D2D) communications is one technique that has been proposed to improve the performance of the system by allowing devices to communicate directly without routing traffic through the base station. This technique has the mean...
