Abstract

This paper proposes a distributed and fair resource allocation scheme for large-scale wireless dynamic spectrum access networks based on particle filtering theory. We introduce a proportionally fair global objective function to maximize the total network throughput while ensuring fairness among users. We rely on particle filtering theory to enable distributed access and allocation of spectrum resources without compromising the overall achievable throughput. Through intensive simulation, we show that our proposed approach performs well by achieving high overall throughput while also improving fairness between users.

Keywords: Particle filtering Dynamic spectrum access Distributed spectrum assignment User fairness
