Analysis of Joint Relay Selection and Resource Allocation Scheme for Relay-Aided D2D Communication Networks

Device-to-device (D2D) communications, as one of the promising technology for the future network, allow two devices in proximity to communicate directly with each other to alleviate the data traffic load for the base station (BS). In this paper, we analysis the joint relay selection and resource allocation scheme for relay-aided D2D communication networks. The objective is to maximize the total transmission data rates of the system while guaranteeing the minimum quality of service (QoS) requirements for both cellular users (CUs) and D2D users (DUs). We first propose a social-aware relay selection algorithm with low computational complexity to obtain the suitable relay nodes (RNs) for D2D links. Then the power control schemes are considered when a D2D link works in the D2D direct or relay mode to maximize the system transmission data rates. On basis of this, we propose a greedy-based mode selection and channel allocation algorithm, which can not only allocate the appropriate channel resource for D2D links, but also select the optimal communication mode for them. Numerical results demonstrate that the proposed scheme is capable of substantially improving the performance of the system compared with the other algorithms.
