Spectrum Sharing in mmWave Cellular Networks Using Clustering Algorithms in Java

Abstract:

This paper concerns the problem of spectrum sharing in mmWave cellular networks, where multiple network operators are granted access to the same spectrum resources. Prior spectrum sharing schemes for mmWave cellular networks have two limitations: high coordination overhead and high computational complexity. In this paper, we propose two spectrum sharing schemes for the mobile scenario and the stationary scenario, respectively. In the mobile scenario, we propose a Spectrum sharing scheme using Clustering Algorithms to find the Optimal Positions of Mobile BSes (SCA-OPM). In the stationary scenario, we propose a Spectrum sharing scheme using Clustering Algorithms to Select the most appropriate Subset from all BSes (SCA-SSB). Moreover, for each newly-arriving mobile terminal (MT), we propose two online spectrum sharing schemes based on our SCA-OPM scheme and SCA-SSB scheme, which effectively saves the overall overhead and complexity. Our experimental results show that the SCA-OPM scheme has the best performance, while the SCA-SSB scheme has the same performance as that of the prior scheme but with lower overhead and lower complexity. When the MT density is 200 MTs/km 2 , for the sum-rate with 10 -2 bits/s/Hz, the performance gap between the SCA-OPM scheme and the remaining schemes achieves about 19 dB. Moreover, our online schemes have the same performance as those of their counterpart schemes but with lower overhead and lower complexity for the scenario of a few newly-arriving MTs.
