Interference Management and Duplex Mode Selection in In-Band Full Duplex D2D Communications: A Stochastic Geometry Approach

摘要

In this article, we present a new approach for managing the interference on cellular users through optimum mode selection between half-duplex (HD) and in-band full-duplex (IBFD) in such a way that device-to-device (D2D) throughput is maximized, while the quality of service (QoS) of the cellular users is guaranteed in terms of delay. To present a comprehensive view and analyse of the proposed approach in a large network, we use Poisson point process that enables us to model a large network with random parameters in such a way that is highly compatible with reality. Also, to model the cellular users' delay, we use the queuing theory and Markov processes. Unlike other related works, the mode selection between HD and IBFD is considered as a decision variable and its optimal value is obtained. The results show that in comparison with the related works, our proposed approach leads to improvements in the D2D throughput, while through proper interference management, the impact on the cellular users' throughput is negligible. Moreover, the QoS of the cellular users is guaranteed by keeping the delay below a certain threshold.
