Compressive sensing power control for interference management in D2D underlaid massive MIMO systems

Abstract This paper introduces a sparsity controlled multiple random access scheme for efficient user scheduling in Device-to-Device (D2D) underlaid massive MIMO systems. In order to both avoid collision and enhance the Energy Efficiency (EE) of two-tier Heterogeneous Cellular Networks (HCNs), a unified Compressed Sensing (CS) based interference management strategy is proposed which guarantees concurrent cellular and D2D multi-user transmissions without collision. Specifically, supposing the natural sparsity in practical fifth generation (5G) scenarios and employing the sparse signal processing techniques, an analytical random access based model is adopted where provides several user scheduling and channel gain constraints to permit user identification, channel estimation and data decoding simultaneously. Furthermore, by developing a tractable tradeoff between the total power consumption and overall throughput of D2D tier, the transmission power is optimized such that the EE of D2D tier is maximized. Numerical simulations demonstrate the effectiveness of suggested approach to improve the collision avoidance capability and EE of D2D underlaid massive MIMO systems, even for crowded scenarios where the sparsity constraint does not meet sufficiently.
