In this work, we present a resource allocation scheme for managing trade-offs between total throughput maximisation and system fairness in a non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) system for 5G networks. Our proposed approach is designed to improve throughput and fairness as performance metrics of NOMA in 5G networks. We apply integer linear programming for user pairing and adopt particle swarm optimisation as the power allocation scheme for reducing resource allocation complexity. To formulate the multi-objective problem, we use scalarisation of multi-objective optimisation, which exhibits flexibility in assigning different weights to a single objective—in the case of this study, either sum rate or fairness. Moreover, the problem is formulated with a penalty function to prevent optimisation violating the constraints of the optimisation function. Simulation results show that the proposed model outperformed the conventional approach by at least 17% in terms of throughput maximisation and fairness rate. Full article

Device-to-device (D2D) communication is affirmed as one of the dynamic techniques in improving the network throughput and capacity and reducing traffic load to the evolved Node B (eNB). In this paper, we propose a resource allocation and power control technique in which two-pairs of D2D users can simultaneously share same uplink cellular resource. In this case, interference between D2D users and cellular users is no longer insignificant so it must be properly handled. The proposed scheme considers fractional frequency reuse (FFR) scheme as a promising method that can relatively reduce the intra-cell interference. The main objective of the proposed scheme is to maximize the D2D communication throughput and overall system throughput by minimizing outage probability. Hence, we formulate an outage probability problem and overall system throughput optimization problem while guaranteeing minimum allowable signal-to-interference-plus-noise ratio (SINR). For fair distribution of cellular resources to multiple D2D pairs, we used Jain's fairness index (JFI) method. Simulation is conducted in MATLAB and our simulation results demonstrate that the proposed scheme achieves remarkable system performance as compared with existing methods. Full article
