Abstract

A coalition based joint subchannel and power allocation approach is studied to improve the performance of device-to-device (D2D) communication underlaying cellular networks with uplink spectrum sharing. To exploit the spectrum reuse gain, we formulate the problem as a coalition formation game. Furthermore, a distributed coalition formation algorithm is devised to assist D2D pairs in joining or leaving a coalition. During the coalition formation process, we introduce an iterative power control method. By using this method, D2D pairs can evaluate their current coalition with D2D sum rate maximization and cellular user equipment protection. Numerical results are provided to corroborate the proposed studies.
